Instruction
Restoration Cleaning
1. Inspect with detecting nose to locate odor.
2. Spray d’Protein-10 agitate with horsehair brush and towel extract until towel shows clean.
3. Spray Acidifier-2.0 agitate with horsehair brush and towel extract until towel shows clean.
Disinfecting Treatment
1. Spray d’Bacteria-3.7 to saturate until natural dry and inspect for satisfaction.
2. An effective technique is placing a paper towel saturated without airspace to help wick up foreign residue as it dries.
Hydrating
1. Spray Hydrator-3.3 to saturate and relax stiff and stick together fibers and to wick out suspended foreign contamination.
2. Wrapping saturated paper towel with Hydrator-3.3 is an advance technique to plumps the leather.
3. Let naturally dry for wicking soiling particulates to be trapped by the paper towel instead of remaining on the leather surface.
Fat and Oil Replenishing
1. Spray Fatliquor-5.0 and redistribute with foam brush until saturation.
2. Continue a second or third application each round water contents evaporates until re-saturation.
3. Leave the leather for natural drying for extra softness.
Rub-Resistant Protection
1. Spray Protector-D+ by mist spraying and spreads with foam brush.
2. For routine application, a paper towel is recommended to spread and extract soiling simultaneously.
