Saphir's Gommadin Suede & Nubuck Cleaner is used to remove stains, water marks and soiling from suede, nubuck, and velvet-finished leathers to restore your shoe's original finish and texture. The coarse texture of the Gommadin Eraser abrades stains and shine marks from the shoes while allowing it to crumble during use. The Gommadin Bar will not change the color of your shoes. Saphir was founded in 1920 and is now France's foremost brand. It is also a world leader due to the quality and diversity of its leather care and renovation products and has successfully met the challenge of maintaining traditional manufacturing practices. Saphir's goal is to offer products manufactured from natural raw materials, selected for their efficacy: turpentine oil, beeswax, carnauba, lanoline and ozokerite wax, jojoba, mink, neatsfoot and sweet almond oil. With this policy, Saphir is the only brand in the world to refrain from incorporating any resin or silicon whatsoever in the manufacture of its polishes, and from marketing any product harmful to leather life.
