Leather that has been regularly cared for, can often develop mold if stored for long periods in humid conditions. The waxes and especially the greases used for its care can be the cause of this mold.
Valmour recommends 2 steps to recover leather that has suffered from humidity and has developed mold even after cleaning:
1- cleaning:
First, thoroughly clean your leather with Renomat which cleans, takes off stains and disinfects. This steps allows to recuperate the leather by destroying the fungi. If it is stiff, use Oxfoot Oil Etalon Noir to soften it.
2- leather embellishment :
. if the leather is smooth and discolored, apply a shoe polish such as Cream Shoe Polish Pommadier Saphir for shoes, or Juvacuir Saphir. These products will enable you to embellish leather by repigmenting it. They do not contain oils, which should be avoided as they feed fungi.
. if it's not discolored, opt for Baume Cuirs ETALON NOIR Saphir for riding gear, a colorless shoe polish. Balm Etalon Noir.
- for greasy leather, apply Cream Shoe Polish Greasy Leather Saphir which will give it back its silky appearance.
