Question 1

I have a Buffalo/Bison couch and wondering if I can use this to condition the leather furniture?

Accepted Answer

ABSOLUTELY!!!!! It is the BEST!!!! I have saddles made of buffalo and an Italian leather chair I use it on!!!!! Definitely worth every penny!!!!! Just get the small round sponges that fit in the tub, You will love it!!!!!

Question 2

After conditioner dries, does leather return to original color? It just darken a pair of expensive boots so you can't see stitching

Accepted Answer

I used the effax cleaner and then the balm, a day or so later on my (expensive, as well as sentimentally valuable) Mullholland Bros bridle leather briefcase/satchel.  No discoloration at all. It’s good stuff imho. I went on to use the two products on all kinds of other leather stuff like my wallets and dress shoes, and some of my mother’s  handbags/purses. With that said, the best results for a leather cleaning product tgat I personally have ever used were from Coach—incredible, but just too expensive for me to continue to use on a regular basis. But, yeah, whatever Coach was using was simply amazing. Still, I’m quite happy with Effax, and no—no discoloration on anything I’ve used it for.

Question 3

Does the final result look glossy or matte?

Accepted Answer

It really depends on how much you use, and the type of leather. Matte leather, with a thin coat/ thin use stayed matte for me,  albeit a tad darker. "Shiny" leather like on pieces of a western saddle positively SHINES. If I used a lot on a matte leather, it would be super shiny too. Very little goes a looong way  - but refrain from use on suede (unless its dire). Suede didn't like the stuff much.

Question 4

how do you apply it to leater how long to wait etc?

Accepted Answer

I applied by hand. Makes a wonderful hand lotion for chapped winter hands. I just rub it in and leave it.
