Product Overview
Shearling Suede Mold Killer Kit Ss4.mk by Leather Doctor is an anti-fungicidal care kit that kills, disinfects, sanitizes, cleans, and deodorizes mold on suede.
Once the mold infestation results in sinking pits, physical damages are irreversible. Mold is a living organism and damages are progressive that timely preventive anti-fungicidal control is preferred over corrective restoration. The only possibility is camouflaging with transparent dyestuff or physical removal as an option.
Suede Mold Killer Kit S3.mk is also made available only for the suede face without modules 6 and 7 to clean, rinse, and condition the wool face as an option.

1: Suede Mold Cleaner 1.5 and Suede Acidifier 2.0 for the initial cleaning, pH balancing, and rinsing of foreign contamination.
2: Suede Cleaner 4.5 and Suede Rinse 3.0 to clean and rinse over the entire surface without leaving a dry edge.
3: Suede Mold Killer 3.6 is a long-term solution to mold reoccurrence.
