Altberg Leder Gris Original Leather Wax Oil

• Waterproof wax for use in tough wet conditions
• Leder-Gris® Original is a mixture of 70% wax and 30% oil.  It has been developed for everyday use in average UK conditions. The wax provides waterproofing, as it dries – it remains on or just below the surface.
• The oil goes deeper into the leather, and helps to maintain the leather’s suppleness by replacing leather oils lost during the drying out process.  If leather oils are not replaced, then boots will be more likely to show signs of flex cracking earlier.
• Note - Use of Leder-Gris® may darken the colour of the leather.
• Medium oil content: restorative levels of leather oils are average
• Medium wax content: waxes are a mixture of synthetic bees waxes – content is average
• Regular use: Leder-Gris® Original can be used regularly – it will not over-soften , or damage leather if used excessively.

• If leather shows signs of hardening, or flex cracking, use a single treatment of Leder-Gris® Xtreme – which is an occasional use restorative treatment
• If you require a high shine, use Leder-Gl?s™
• Size of tin 80gms
• Not tested on animals
• Flammable
• Keep out of reach of children – if swallowed, seek medical advice
• Avoid contact with eyes and mouth

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF LEDER-GRIS®

• Brush in Leder-Gris® when the boots are almost dry
• Use the brush to work, and drive the wax oil into the leather
• Always treat with Leder-Gris® before storage
• If leather shows signs of hardening, or after use in extreme wet conditions, use Leder-Gris® Xtreme as a ‘one-off’ treatment
• Altberg only recommends Leder-Gris® – we DO NOT recommend dubbins, saddle soap, or any kiwi type polishes.
• All leather will eventually show signs of cracking where the boot flexes. Treatment with Leder-Gris® will slow down the rate at which this cracking will occur.
• Drying boots too quickly will harden the leather and accelerate flex cracking - rapid drying may also shrink the boot and alter the fitting. 
• Always let boots dry naturally in a cool place.

DRYING LEATHER WHEN WET

• Never dry quickly
• Never dry near heat
• Never dry, or leave in sunlight
• Never force dry in any way
• Drying boots too quickly can shrink them - if you're in a very hot climate, cover the boots with a damp cloth to slow down the rate of moisture evaporation
• Use Leder-Gris® Original (green label) regularly
• Use Leder-Gris® Xtreme (red label) occasionally
• For high shine parade finish, use Leder-Gl?s™
