How to care for and repair new full-grain leather (nappa):
Depending on how soiled the leather is, it should be cleaned with either
our Mild or Strong
Leather Cleaner. After every use of the cleaner, the leather should then
be treated every 3 - 6 months with our Leather Protector.
The Leather Protector is ideal for nappa leather. It protects the leather from fading,
drying and scratches. Treating the leather in regular terms, it will stay nice much
longer.
Important: Treating with just a little bit of the care product in regular terms is much
better then treating seldom with lots of product.
The driver seat should be protected additionally with our Leather
Shield before using the Leather Protector. The driver seat is the most
suffering surface. Using the Leather Shield, scratches and rub damages will be reduced.
Cabriolets should be impregnated with our Elephant Leather
Preserver.
