The treatment bonds with the leather fibers, creating a barrier while the leather stays soft and pliable. Applied directly at tanneries, the finish protects suede, nubuck and smooth leather without changing how the leather feels, breathes or smells. Leather stays looking new longer because it is resistant to abrasion from natural elements as well as from chemicals such as road salt residue. Scotchgard protection for leather is also essential for waterproof leathers that are exposed to damaging environments. Enhancing its water repellency benefits, the finish also adds stain resistance, providing overall protection from wet areas or harsh conditions, such as marshes and salt deposits.
Scotchgard protection adds life to all leather, from all-terrain boots to bomber jackets.
