To get the couch back to its original condition:
The wax effect has to be replenished at regular interval to maintain the finish.
When Wax Effect-8.6 is applied to the leather, it will soak in.
This is how the leather has the pull-up effect (lightens when pull or stretch).
The wax crystalline remains on the surface turning the surface coated white.
This surface wax crystal deposits is to be activated with a warm blower like a hair dryer/
The heat activate or melts the wax to form the typical “shiny” look characteristic of the Wax Pull-up leathers.
When it is done sufficiently, the finish will revert to original condition.
Scratches that can be feels by hand will require a leather bond to smoothen it.
All repairs marks whether original or present will take on a darkening healing mark appearance.
Imitation leathers will lack the darkening features that authenticate leather genuinely.
