Questions & Answers

What will happen to light colored leather (light pink or white) if this is applied?

Sorry, but no. The color of our white leather couch has not been affected by the cleaning process.

What happens if you repair a small crack in a PU couch with this?

Using this leather conditioner will make it last longer. The polyurethane will not be repaired if it has a crack

Does this prevent my car seat from getting wet during the summer? During the summer months, it gets as high as three digits. ?

Your leather seats would be fine if you use it to cover them. It just puts a very thin film or covering on top of While you are applying it, you cannot see it unless it is wet. As soon as it dries, it is ready to use. The product has been used by me for years on all my leather furniture inside the house, so I can't comment specifically on 3 My guess is that it would be fine. All it does is make the leather supple - so I assume it would be just fine. As it ages, leather does not become hard and brittle. My favorite part of it is the simplicity. I don't think you'd have any problems There is nothing to lose by giving it Perhaps it is best to test it on an area that's not easily noticeable to see if the leather would be affected by very high temperatures inside the vehicle. That's all I have to say.

Is this going to keep the leather from being ruined by blue jeans?

As far as staining leather is concerned, I cannot see how this works. In my car, I had the same issue with leather seats. The most problematic jeans are Lucky Brand jeans. Only of these jeans can bleed from the seat cover. We've been using Guardsman letter lotion and spot cleaner on our high quality leather sofa for years and years, to maintain the flexibility and smoothness of the leather. I can hardly believe that our 17 year old sofa is still in good condition. If I were to buy a cover, I'd either switch jeans or buy a different brand of jeans

It's a great product! A beige leather chair that I have had for more than 20 years is a great replacement for this product
5/5

I didn't realize the leather was starting to dry out and crack until it was too late. Based on the many reviews I read, I chose this product. It made me happy that I did it. By doing so, the leather has lost its stiffness. I knew the cracks would remain, so I didn't worry about them. It did not seem to make any difference to the color of the leather. I applied it three times and made sure it was thick.

Almost lost my leather couch, but I managed to save it
5/5

works better if you use the cleaner first. I had allowed the surface of my 20 year old leather sofa to become fuzzy from too much sunlight ten years ago and thought I'd ruin it. The couch looked bad. It looked more like the underneath of a brush than a leather couch. I have been using this leather finish protectant on my couch for about ten years now, and it is still presentable, and as long as I keep a coat of it on, the couch should last another ten years on the 1/3 of the couch that has deteriorated. With the finish/protectant, the deterioration of the couch has almost been stopped entirely, and I get the feeling it would look almost brand new right now if I had used it for the first ten years. This results in a finish that looks similar to a wood finish when you put it on. I would describe it as relatively clear in nature. It suppresses the sun's rays, stopping it from damaging your wood. This is the same technology used to protect wood floors and furniture from damage. As well as being a partial barrier against sunlight, it binds up the "grain" of the leather, which prevents dust and spills from accumulating between them, and can reduce scratches to an extent. Most of the time, it stops the way that sunlight breaks down organic matter, in this case the skin of a once-living cow. I find it works better if you use the detergent on problem areas, so you might think that building it up over and over would be better, but I've found it actually works better if you use the liquid detergent separately. I have also found that the two used separately work better for the damaged parts than the all-in-one product that cleans and protects them

Only one application of the protectant or finish is necessary for the undamaged part of the couch. You should pile it up on the damaged part after you clean the damaged part, It was helpful to apply a few different applications on the damaged part of the couch, with some in-depth attention to detail It is between A painted surface that's been left to dry does create a built up appearance, just like wood would, which not only makes it look better and last longer, but protects it longer as well. The undamaged part of the couch can go longer than a month before I start hitting it, but the badly damaged part I hit every three weeks to prevent the brushy leather tips set up by the action of sunlight on the leather from becoming exposed.

Leather that has been revived but stained by it
4/5

The genuine leather and full grain leather boots become softer as a result of this treatment In addition to leaving a slippery residue on full grain leather, it also leaves a waxy residue. Leathers are an example of this). This is what it looked like after I used it on some Dan Post genuine leather boots on the tip that I scratched, and I didn't think the leather would turn darker but it somehow covered up the scratch so it looked smoother once This was more noticeable at first, but after weeks, it is not as noticeable (see photo). I won't repurchase. There is a good thing about it, in that it can fix scuffs and scratches on full grain and genuine I used it to fix a scratch on the tip of my Tanner Mark boot and a cracked section of the tongue of my Dan Post boot. Also, I used it to wash and treat some other leather cowboy boots (Durango full grain leather) and it turned them a little darker. My white leather cowboy boots didn't change color either since they are made of leather. When it comes to boots, there are better conditioners out there, so if you have expensive cowboy boots, you should try PU leather, the fake leather, is not prone to peeling. Not sure if this will prevent it.

It is the best leather conditioner I have ever Lexol was once a favorite of mine, but the tacky or waxy feeling after conditioning got tiring
5/5

The polish goes on smoothly, and if your leather is still in good shape, it just absorbs the oil. A leather that has been coated multiple times turns from being hard to being non-porous Once again, pliable to become soft and rich in feeling. In my opinion, this leather conditioner is the best in the world.

It is recommended to keep your couch Despite the fact that my new leather couch was starting to feel a little dry, it isn't that I want to spend a lot of time on maintaining a piece of furniture that is supposed to last a lifetime
4/5

It was a pleasure to use these sheets. A couple of times per month, I make use of about three pillows on my couch. The majority of the time, I take care of people before they arrive if I believe it is urgent. With this product, I can make my couch feel smooth and give it nice finish quickly and easily. It's wonderful how my couch feels after I've used this product. I wish the cloths were a little damper, but I do appreciate the work you put into the product. This product, however, does maintain a nice soft feel to your couch, so it is well worth a purchase to keep it that way.

Buying Guardsman Clean &amp Degreaser was our decision Prolong it by renewing it and protecting it At a local consignment store, a leather club chair and leather dining chairs will be preserved to be used
5/5

In or near a long, hot, desert climate, the chairs clearly showed wear and tear and signs of drying. product was recommended by a number of local furniture stores and was very simple to use. In our case, the Clean & Clear method was used You only need to renew once and the Protect & Secure option is available Make sure you preserve the file Despite the fact that they did not remove scratches, stains, or sun fading, the products did restore the original luster and true richness of the leather, minimising the appearance of any visible scratches, stains, or I was pleased with the quality of the work and the value for money.
