Calibrated for nubuck, suede and aniline leathers
Soft, beautiful, and luxurious, the leathers are referred to as 'unfinished'. That's because they typically have no or minimal protective coatings or 'finish' on the surface. This can make them particularly vulnerable to indelible marks. When spills happen, fast and correct cleaning can greatly reduce the chance of ugly stains. Minimise oil stains from skin and hair with regular cleaning and conditioning. Once stains have 'set-in' they are usually permanent, although, with regular care, marks can soften and become less eye-catching.
Anti-bacterial
Contains a powerful antibacterial that is proven to kill:
- Escherichia coli (E coli)
- Proteus vulgaris
- Pseudomonas aeruginosa
- Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA or Golden Staph)
Light and regular care is best
Apply by spray or pour onto a just damp white microfibre cloth. Wipe over the leather using moderate pressure. A soft bristle brush can be helpful to agitate the cleaner into the grain. Wipe away any soiling and follow up with Nubuck, Suede & Aniline Nourish (No.11) to nourish, maintain suppleness and leave your leather feeling beautiful.

Coverage estimatesare broad as individual users have leather
that is in different condition and use products on different care schedules. The newer the leather and the more frequently it is serviced, the less product required per service. The older the leather, the less frequently it has been
treated in the past and with an infrequent care schedule going forward, the amount of product needed for each service will be greater. We recommend light and regular care. For some users this will be once every week or two. For others, it will be once every 3 months. In most cases, leather care that is
stretched beyond a 3 monthly schedule requires more effort and can consume more product. Another factor is usage. Some users choose to apply more product per service than others.

Perfectly balanced
When it comes to leather cleaners, stronger is not necessarily better. Rather, it's more about using the right type of cleaner for your leather and purpose.
Nubuck, suede and aniline leathers need a gentle pH neutral wash that removes surface grime without drying out the leather.
The best approach
The No.1 secret in leather care is light and regular servicing.
Four light cleans per year are better for your leather AND easier for you than one arduous spring clean using harsh methods and stong products.
When it comes to unfinished leathers, having a suitable cleaner on hand for when accidents and spills happen can be the difference between a shadowy mark and a stark, eye-catching stain
