CARE

Nylon and leather are durable materials, however to ensure longevity, store out of direct sunlight, avoid abrasive surfaces. We recommend using our Collonil waterproofer to help care for your items. Clean gently with soft, damp cloth or spot clean with care using a nylon cleaner like Twoobs' Blooper Booper or Collonil Cleaning Spray, avoiding hardware. 

A water-repellent treatment has been applied to the fabric, but rain exposure should be avoided. Avoid rubbing this material against colour-contrasting materials, and protect it from ongoing UV exposure, heat, liquids and greasy substances where possible. Continue to treat with Collonil Vario spray.
