Modern leather finishes are high-tech - they are elastic, wear-resistant and, very importantly, air and water vapour permeable. Most high-quality vinyl or PU leather imitations are also coated with protective finishes. These finishes are protected with a clear coating called a ‘topcoat’ which carries waxes and additives that give the surface a soft touch, and prevent scratches, wear, creaking and squeaking. The elastic finish must be protected for the surface to retain its new look,\u2028and soft touch and stay squeak free. Why 3 Minus? New leather has an optimum balance of moisture and oil. Protecting the topcoat is therefore the priority. During this time, applying a leather conditioner shows little or no benefit. For the 3 first years: use Geist.
