How to Clean and Maintain Your Holster

Clean

Your leather holster has been sealed inside & out with a quality acrylic-based sealer and will need minimal care and maintenance throughout its service life.  If you find it necessary to clean your holster, use a damp cloth rubbed in a little bit of saddle soap until it forms a lather, then gently rub the surface of the leather with the lather.  Gently wipe off with a soft cloth.  If the lather builds up in the stitch holes or other areas, gently brush the excess away with a soft brush (like an old tooth brush or shoe polish brush).  Be careful to avoid the over-application of water.  The holster can also be cleaned with quality leather lotion, following the instructions on the product label.

To dry the holster, place it in front of a fan – do not use heat to dry your holster.

Maintain

To restore the shine to your holster and to help protect it from moisture and wear, you can apply a neutral shoe polish or paste wax according to the instructions on the product label.
