Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Leather CPR Leather Cleaner / ConditionerCustomer Review: stupid name, but good product Summary: 4 Stars
i am a serious military leather jacket (and motorcycle jacket) collector and had done some research as to what conditioner to use for longevity and quality...i first used lexol, which has the main drawback of being liquid and soaking through your leather, to the other side, and into your liner, leaving spots that are not easy to remove, if they even can be.
so i looked at all the pro saddle soaps, and the famous pecard's...all paste/cream types that would not soak through...it is arguable, but the problem i found with the most referred product, pecard's, was that it had petroleum product in it, which over time is said to weaken threads
neatsfoot is often recommended, but also is said to weaken thread
this left all the saddle soaps out there...all good i'm sure...i ended up choosing leather cpr, despite a name that did NOT suggest a professional grade product (more a convenience product for housewives and househusbands...nothing wrong with housewives/husbands, just folks looking more for convenience over technical qualities).
all the saddle soaps had to be left on, then buffed after drying...leather cpr stated it had to be applied, and then almost immediately could be buffed/polished
the truth was better than that, i was able to apply leather cpr to some very fine collectible jackets, some not needing much, some really dried out, and not having to buff...you do have to work the paste/cream in, and it might lather a bit as it's working in, but you don't seem to have to buff it
aside from not soaking through to the liner, the product seemed to outperform lexol in that the leather looked more natural, rather than the slightly artificial look lexol seemed to give the leather (nice, but kind of like tire black applied to a tire...doesn't look for real...but this was a very slight effect, and more subjective as to whether you wanted a somewhat unnatural newish shine to your old jacket...i prefer it to look conditioned, but still like real leather that hasn't been 'conditioned')
anyway, i've been very happy with leather cpr, though a bit embarrassed to recommend it because of the name, sounding like a supermarket product...unfortunately, leather cpr has gone one step further into looking like an untechnical convenience product...the first that i tried it, i got it in the tub, which came with a sponge, like all good saddle soaps (though it was available in a tube)...however, i purchased it again from bargain traders, or bargain hunter traders, one of the less expensive sellers here on amazon, and even though i ordered the tubs, i got the tubes...i was really angry (though there seemed almost negligible difference in the liquidity...was still creamy) as i wanted the sponge, and i enjoyed the tub...however, bargain traders stated that leather cpr does NOT offer this in tubs anymore...i have yet to verify that, but i'm not happy with that if it's so
but otherwise, for ease of use, and non-destructivity of threads, this is a good product...as you might expect, if you have a really dry jacket, old dry leather, it might take several applications as the first application looks good, but then seams to be absorbed by the leather and it needs another application to look really conditioned
from what i understand, the main ingredient is lanolin, vs. any petrol products...
