Apple Brand Leather Care Kit Cleaner & Conditioner Review

The Apple Brand Leather Care Kit is among the top recommended products for leather care today. It is composed of the Apple Leather Cleaner and the Apple Leather Care Conditioner. Many say that it is a more convenient and less costly alternative to having your leather products professionally cleaned. But is it effective and safe for all types of leather? Let us take a closer look at what some users have said about the Apple Leather Care Kit.

The Kit was said to have done wonders on a white calfskin Prada, as it was cleaned really well and was left “buttery soft.” The Apple products were also found to have been effectively and safely used on Chanel Lambskin and Camellia wallets, as well as, other Leather pieces like Louis Vuitton, Coach, Balenciaga, Ralph Lauren, Cole Haan and Marc Jacobs (However, MJs were said to have been designed not to have any product applied on them for a later “lived in, worn out” look). It was also noted to leave favorable results when used for scrubbing off very small spots on a black lambskin bag, for cleaning boots with “salt up build up” from winter use and for restoring a chair which suffered cat tracks made with its nails.

However, not all experiences from its use were pleasant. Some buyers indicated the following results from the use of the Apple Leather Care Kit: the dye and stain taken from clothing was not removed from a Chanel bag; the dye of a cognac bag was taken off; a minuscule scratch was caused on a black lambskin bag; spots on a Linea Pelle and a Joy Gryson darkened some more; and a white Chanel vintage GST turned yellow.

Though it may have caused some negative effects, it is still generally a good product as it does well on cleaning and keeping some leather supple and silky without the cost of and the trip to and from a professional cleaner. It would, however, be very helpful to keep in mind these suggestions when using the Apple Leather Care Kit Cleaner & Conditioner:

1. Use only a soft and smooth material in applying the cleaner and the conditioner;
2. Rub gently on the item to be cleaned or conditioned;
3. Try the products on a tiny obscure part of your item first to see if it is indeed safe to use for it;
4. Use the conditioner to clean off light dirt and stains, in addition to using it for moisturizing;
5. Use the cleaner only for heavy dirt and stains;
6. Note that its use will automatically cause darkening, wait for drying for the real color to resume or reappear; and
7. Always check that your products are not expired upon use.

With these in mind, you will be able to enjoy the maximum benefits of the Apple Leather Care Cleaner & Conditioner.
