Pack description
Briefly on cleaning and caring for leather
- Cleaning leather is done with a mild leather cleaner or leather soap. Saphir Leather Cleanser is excellent for this purpose. First brush away surface dirt. Then apply the product to a clean cotton cloth and rub the dirty area with light pressure. Let dry.
- After cleaning, the leather needs to be nourished, and this can be done between cleans if necessary. Take small amounts of Saphir Leather Lotion on a cloth and spread it over the leather. Allow to dry for about 10 minutes, then brush the surface to remove excess and bring out the shine.

How to use
Saphir Medaille d'Or Cleanser gently dissolves dirt and stains, while not removing shoe cream and wax polish to any larger extent. It's' good to use to easily clean off dirt before your regular shoe care routine, or on dirty leather products.
Take the cleanser on a cotton cloth and rub with soft pressure over the area that is dirty, or if needed over the entire shoe/leather product, part by part. If you rub harder and more, you will dissolve some of the cream and waxes, but if gentle it's only the dirt that is removed. You'll notice once the leather gets clean, it looks a bit matte.
For shoes, though not necessary, it is recommended to apply shoe cream after cleaning. The cleanser evaporates quickly so the leather doesn't get wet, yet it's good to let the shoes rest a bit so it's completely dry before you apply a thin layer of Saphir Medaille d'Or Crème Pommadier shoe cream, and if you wish also Saphir Pate de Lux wax polish.
For leather products, it's recommended to apply Saphir Medaille d'Or Leather Lotion or another nourishing and caring product after cleaning.

How to use
Saphir Medaille d'Or Leather Lotion is viscos, a bit like soured milk, yet it's very ample. Take a small amount on a polishing cloth and work it into the leather, a thin layer is enough. Let id dry for 5-10 minutes and then brush it up with a brush with horsehair which removes residues and can also achieve a small shine, if sought after. If the leather is dry repeat the procedure.
Since the lotion is completely colourless and doesn't smudge it can be used on all types of leather products to moisturise, nourish and protect, and can really bring back and prolong life to hard worn leather. Use it for gloves, belts, briefcases, wallets, hand bags, leather seats in the car, leather sofas, watch straps, and so on, or to treat the leather lining of your shoes.
How often you should use Saphir's leather lotion depends on what the product is exposed to, but at least once a year.
