• For an even finish, warm the waxed surface with a hair dryer.
• Hang the treated product in a warm place overnight.

Color Cream and Cleaning Tools

The black or brown color cream is used to cover scratches and scuffs on smooth leather. It must not be used on split leather. Massage it into the cleaned area with a sponge, allow the cream to dry for 15 minutes and then polish with a soft cloth.

The soft brush provides even, scratch-free cleaning. The brush with brass bristles is intended for caring for split leather. Glue and sticky residue on leather or split leather can be removed with the Para cleaning disc: rub it over the area with light pressure and then clean with a soft cloth.
