Lexol Leather Deep Conditioner Lotion (8 oz.) & Microfiber Cloth Kit

• Lexol Leather Conditioner protects old and new leather from cracking and premature aging by providing
  the lubrication to keep it strong and supple. It is made with the finest tanning oils which are emulsified
  into microscopic droplets. These oil droplets bond to the leather fibers, nourishing the leather and leaving
  no greasy residue. Use Lexol regularly to keep your leather looking and performing its best. NOT recommended
  for suede or glove soft leather. Great for auto upholstery, saddles, boots, luggage, shoes, furniture, and more.

• Lexol is a liquid conditioner and preservative intended for use in the care and conservation of leather.
  Its purpose is to maintain the strength, beauty, utility and flexibility of leather - old and new -
  and to restore resiliency to old or neglected leather that has become hardened and stiff.

• In the manufacture of leather, as a final and essential step, the tanned hide is subjected to a process
  called ”fat-liquoring” in which it is treated with a generous supply of special oils - emulsions prepared from
  the appropriate lubricants - which lubricate the leather to confer the desired qualities of softness, flexibility and strength.
  Thus, when the leather leaves the tannery, it is at the correct pH and is fully lubricated due to the unique capability
  of these emulsions to be readily absorbed into, and combined with, the leather’s fibers. However, these oils must
  still be replenished periodically to maintain proper lubrication and to avert any tendency to deteriorate.
  The type of preparation that is most effective in achieving both these goals is an emulsion similar to those employed
  in the original manufacture of the leather. LEXOL is an emulsion of this type.

• BONUS: Comes with a large microfiber cloth that is great for polishing and buffing all paint surfaces (color may vary)
  

Why is Lexol superior to other leather conditioners and preservatives:

• The oils in LEXOL have been modified to facilitate effective distribution of microscopically fine oil droplets which can
  be more readily absorbed into the leather fibers than the comparatively large droplets typical of raw oils or less fine emulsions.
  LEXOL’s smaller oil droplets combine with the fibers, because of their affinity or adherence that is lacking with other oils.
  Thus the modified oils in LEXOL are kept under control and are retained in the area of application. In this way,
  LEXOL is able to nourish the leather and its fibers while protecting against migration, or seepage,
  into adjacent materials or surfaces.

• Many leather dressings utilize chemical solvents in order to facilitate penetration of oils into the leather.
  Such solvents can lead to ”bleeding” or migrating onto adjacent materials, causing discoloration or other damage.
  In addition, such chemical solvents may be flammable, irritating or toxic.

• LEXOL does not contain any chemical solvents. As an aqueous emulsion, it achieves several objectives:
  (1) fiber penetration and nourishment; (2) absorption and retention in the leather; (3) control of migration or seepage.
  Unlike most organic solvents, LEXOL is nonflammable, odorless, non-toxic and non-sensitizing to the skin.
  Also, LEXOL does not impart a greasy or tacky feel to the surface of the leather.

• Although LEXOL is widely accepted as a treatment for the more common vegetable and chrome-tanned leather,
  there are certain leathers for which it is not suitable (e.g., napped leathers, such as suede or glove soft leather,
  which call for treatment with lighter lubricants). NOTE: Leather that has become cracked from inadequate
  or inappropriate care cannot be restored to its original state by any available method.

• In summary, LEXOL is readily absorbed into the fibers and provides lasting and effective lubrication
  without migration while leaving leather feeling soft and smooth.
