Geist 3 Minus Care Kit for Leather & Vinyl

Pigmented (non porous) leather commonly found in cars, furniture and other leather items has a coloured protective finish. 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, prevent scratches, wear, creaking and squeaking. The elastic finish must be protected for the surface to retain its new look,
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. Dye & Friction Blocker to protect against dye transfer and friction damage after cleaning.
