FAQs

How often should I apply the Neatsfoot Compound?

Apply as needed, depending on the condition of your leather. For regular maintenance, every 2-3 months is sufficient. For very dry leather, you may need to apply more frequently.

Can I use this product on suede?

No, this product is not recommended for use on suede. It is designed for smooth leather only.

Is this product safe for colored leather?

It is generally safe, but always test on a small, hidden area first to ensure it doesn't affect the color.

How should I store the product?

Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keep the container sealed when not in use.

What should I do if the leather feels sticky after application?

Wipe off any excess product with a clean cloth. The stickiness indicates too much product was applied.

Can this product be used on synthetic leather?

No, this product is designed for use on genuine leather only. It will not work on synthetic materials.

How long does it take for the product to dry?

Allow the product to absorb into the leather for about 10-20 minutes. After that, wipe off any excess. The leather should not feel wet after this time.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears too oily after application.

Wipe off any excess product with a clean, dry cloth. Reduce the amount of product used in subsequent applications.

Product is not absorbing into the leather.

Ensure the leather is clean before application. Apply a thinner layer and allow more time for absorption.

Leather color has changed.

This could be due to over-application or a reaction with the leather. Test the product on a hidden area first. If the issue persists, discontinue use and consult a leather care specialist.
