Treating and keeping Ol' Jules Verne looking like new.

Nubuck gator,fantastic looking,but no protective layer.Prone to dirt accumualation and shining patches forming.Uneven darkening of the strap with wear,due to the accumualtion of dirt and grime.Especially on the wrist side.

Very dirty ~ wash with liquid dishwashing soap and a sponge.Let completely dry and it looks like new.In front of a fan.DO NOT do this with other gator straps !!!!

Slightly dirty,shiny patches ~ Use the coarse part of a dishwashing sponge.Cut a small part out and just sand the dry strap with a small piece.Be patient and keep away from the sides and the ecru stitching.Softly !!!

Pics of my Jules Verne looking great after some gentle sanding ........
