Steps to cleaning cowboy boots and other leather products:

1. Remove thicker dirt then, clean your leather products by wiping often with soft, damp cloth with Bick 4 cleaning product.


2. Rub conditioner on boots or leather products with Bick 4 Conditioner only after they are clean and dry, so the conditioner can penetrate the pores on the leather. (Or just go ahead and use your hands.) Making sure that you get it in all the cracks and apply liberally.


3. Let your boots rest so the leather can absorb the conditioner.


4. Apply a cream-based leather polish after the conditioner has been applied. That will help cover any scratches still visible to the eye and will give a shine if you prefer.


5. Finally, protect your efforts of cleaning and conditioning, by applying a good non-silicone water and stain protector, making sure to use a boot tree to help maintain the boots shape when your not wearing them. This will protect and keep your leather boots and leather products looking new for years to come and will prevent them from cracking and splitting, and also keeps the stitches in good shape.


6. Enjoy your boots for years to come!
