Disclaimer
BLC Leather Technology Centre do not endorse
any particular care products and take no responsibility for any
damage that may result from their use. You are advised to test any
care product in an inconspicuous area first, and only use products
which are intended for the type of leather in question.

Typical leather
care products include cleaning solutions, cleaning kits,
conditioners, polishes and colour touch-up kits for
concealing scratches and scuffs. Some companies also
have specialised products for removing ink or grease,
or for restoring the smell of new leather.
Specialised
leather care products are formulated to clean and protect
without damaging the finish.
Avoid using
household cleaning products, solvents, or cleaners intended
for materials other than leather as they are liable
to damage the finish.
When using
proprietary care products always follow the instruction
carefully and test on an inconspicuous area first.
Before selecting
a care product you should determine what type of leather
you are dealing with, for example, aniline or semi-aniline,
pigmented, nubuck or suede. See how
to tell for advice.
