    No idea how that will perform. Sorry!

    Yes it would

    Wow....I don't know what to say. I do mine much faster....a single sofa and ottoman would be 40 - 50 minutes. Sounds like you are using too much product, too. Go fast and thin coats.

    Miserable day in Virginia, hot / humid / rainy. No outdoor chores for me, an inside day. Let's clean my leather furniture! A task no one enjoys, but a necessity if you want maximum longevity out...

    Both work, if you want speed, do the Leather Solutions Pull-Up/Burnished kit, its much quicker. If you want the ultimate leather care product and are patient to rub it all in, the # 33 Balm (when...

    I don't vouch for the "safety" of my own cleaning brew because I don't need the liability! I'll just say I use it with excellent results, use at your own risk.

    Myself, When I do a leather piece I...

    Cleaner is cheap (and you can also make your own) it's the Conditioner that is costly. I go sparingly on the latter - the more important part is cleaning anyways. On my own leather at home, I will...

    Not all Anilines are created equal. The Tilton is a South American processed hide, the Burnished leathers (all of them) are from Italy, and those are Old World techniques that rally benefit from the...
  9. Sticky: Re: Leather Cleaning & Conditioning Protocol for all brands

    All the burnished leathers are built atop pull-up crusts so the oil and wax would apply.

    However, in my opinion, the Moore and Giles # 33 Conditioner is 5x better on burnished leather than that...

    Both of them, Pull-up hides are oil and wax infused, so you use both. Oil first.

    Most people tend to use too much cleaner, so the maker of the kit says to use a hair dryer in order to avoid water staining the leather. I never use the hair dryer for the cleaner, but I know to go...

    I have no idea, I get those from Moore & Giles when I order their # 33 Conditioner
  13. Sticky: Re: Leather Cleaning & Conditioning Protocol for all brands

    Its not cost effective for you, sorry. Shipping would be pricey, then there are custom duties, foreign transaction fees on credit cards, and lots of paperwork. I would suggest you order leather...
  14. Sticky: Re: Leather Cleaning & Conditioning Protocol for all brands

    Yes. Use the Pull-Up / Burnished kit @ $ 83.50 + $ 15.00 to ship.

    No idea, sorry! I was not a dealer 30 years ago. There is no one at H&M that would know, either. Kudos that you are 30 years old on that piece and going strong with it - that's the famous H&M...

    Just damp is all you need on your cloth, not wet.

    You will extend the life if your new furniture by decades just by doing that very simple wipe down regimen. I can’t begin to tell you the number of emails (with photos) that we get of stained and...
  18. Sticky: Re: Leather Cleaning & Conditioning Protocol for all brands

    I just wipe down the wear areas only with a damp cloth, it’s just to get the oils and dirt off. You’re good to go!
  19. Sticky: Re: Leather Cleaning & Conditioning Protocol for all brands

    I don't. That will always be the original color because it has no sunlight and wear exposure. It won't hurt if you want to do it though.
  20. Sticky: Re: Leather Cleaning & Conditioning Protocol for all brands

    Capri is a much lighter and more naked leather than a burnished hide or pull-up. I have used it once on Capri and i was happy with the results, but you apply much lighter and less aggressively. It...

    Works on all leathers. The key however, is not to saturate. Go easy on the amount of cleaner applied. I do not spray it direct, rather I spray it on my microfiber towel and then use that to clean...

    I literally make my own cleaner using one of two options:

    1) Damp (not wet) white washcloth, bar of plain white Ivory Soap. Swipe onto the washcloth (not too much soap) and go over the piece. ...
  23. Sticky: Re: Leather Cleaning & Conditioning Protocol for all brands

    Just a damp cloth wipe down once in a while is good. Room Temp is fine.

    I actually prefer the Moore & Giles # 33 Conditioner for Burnished leathers and Pull-ups to the Leather Solutions kit. I...

    Well, image if you bought a brand new pair of blue jeans, wore them for 7 years and never put them through the laundry. They would not be very nice or very clean. That's your sofa right now.
