How to Use this Leather eBook
This book is your guide to navigating the fascinating world of leather. If you're reading this,
chances are you have a prized leather piece of your own and you want to make sure it stays that
way. When taken care of properly, leather is more than a fashion statement, it’s a lifetime
companion.
Throughout this eBook, you will find revealing tips that provide helpful information that will
enable you to create a leather care process that's right for you. There are many types of leather,
ranging wildly from vegetable tanned to chrome tanned, full grain to suede, finished to aniline
dyed, cowhide to ostrich skin. Virtually limitless variables can contribute to the inner workings of
your leather, so it stands to reason that they all can't be treated the same way.
Chamberlain’s leather care recommendations and leather education 101 described below are
not hammered in stone, but are flexible, and meant to give you direction. The most important
rule of leather care is discovery. When in doubt, test first. Now with all that out of the way, let
the leather adventure begin!
