Nappy Rash Cream As Leather Conditioner/shine

Recommended Posts

I wear a braided leather bracelet on my right arm and its been there for quite some time and was looking a bit dull. I recently had some tattoo work done...(yes, i am addicted) and it is normal practice to apply Bepanthan nappy rash cream to new tattoos. I ended up with cream on the bracelet so i rubbed it in! OMG...what a great finished it gave. The bracelet looks like new! It gives a very nice shine. Nappy rash cream gives a water proof finish but allows the skin to breath....leather sure likes it. It is about 4 months on and the bracelet looks as good as the day i applied the cream! The product is quite cheap and a little bit goes along way.

cheers

Well, I'm impressed. Worked beautifully on Saddle Tan at least. More experiments coming up.

Hi Roo,

Must be a Commonwealth kind of thing. We (U.S.) have Bayer Bepanthen Cream and Ointment, I figure the cream is the same.

"A+D" ointment from Wally World is what I used. Worked on everything I tried it on. Very light application gives a "matte" finish, heavier applications look glossier.
