Leather 50/50 cleaning

[Greg | ValetPro]

 

Hello All 

 

I hope you enjoy the video demo showing how our leather soap cleans leather.  

 

Leather is a sensitive surface and some thought is needed to make sure that over the long term the cleaning work put in to leather does  not deteriorate the finish over a long period of time.

Car leather although sensitive is also quite hard wearing.  Most car leathers have a polymer paint coating the top of the leather making sure it prevents the leather from drying out.  Old cars you would need to regularly oil and feed your leather to keep it supple but modern leathers do not required this type of attention. However the choice of cleaner is important.  In my years prior to ValetPRO working as a valeter I have seen the effects of other leather cleaners over the long term.  Lots of leather cleaners are liquid based and like water.  This type of product has the danger of saturating the leather surface.  This feeds in to the stitch and as such this is the first point at which leather starts to deteriorate.  The effect of using a water cleaner on perforated leather can also show deterioration faster.  This is because the cleaners break the barriers and gets in to the hide.  

Our Gel soap is different as it focuses on the surface and does not have the same ability to seep through gaps and holes, and therefore does not dry out or compromise the leather.  It does this while giving a deep clean in the leather grain as shown in this video.

Our aim is to make world class products that our customers can rely on.  We put a lot of thought in our products and development which is why our product development comes from a detailers experience and perspective while collaborating with the expertise of chemists. This helps us create products that work in the real world.
