Nickwax

Post by Ninjachica »

Who knew? 😕

Last Christmas my brother bought me some of this stuff, but I wore textiles and never got around to cleaning my leathers.

Did them today, and, OMG, they look like new again. Just need the elastic replacing, as the rubber has perished, but that’s a job for a specialist

What a difference! I like Nikwax products but that's something I haven't tried, so nice to know it works so well.

I have to admit, I only cleaned the white bits 😆😆

And yesterday I realised that I’d missed some 🙄

It's deffo good stuff.
I don't do leathers although i have some (mostly gifted).
My HG are done once a year with Nik Wax.
The wash, then the waterproof stuff, worked well so far.
Work is for people that can't play golf.

I like the wash and then waterproofing afterwards. I also use their visor clear for rainy days. It needs re-doing for every journey but it works very well for me. I must have got through a few dozen bottles during the winter commuting. :D
