Leather Prep

Leather Prep is used to remove old and worn leather coatings
that have aged, cracked, or lost performance. In many cases, visible cracking is in the finish layer rather than the leather itself, so removing the old coating can improve both appearance and feel.

It is designed to remove the factory finish (protective varnish and paint) and also remove soluble waxes, oils, and silicones that may
cause adhesion issues during painting.
