Otter Wax(TM) Launches New Line Of All-natural Leather Conditioner - Portland, OR
Otter Wax™ a recent start-up based out of Portland, Oregon has launched their brand new Leather Salve, an all-natural leather conditioning treatment utilizing shea butter and flaxseed oil to restore suppleness, shine, and water-repellency.
- (1888PressRelease) October 14, 2011 - Otter Wax™ is a small, new company based out of Portland, Oregon but their product line of high-quality fabric and leather-care products keeps growing! The newest addition to the Otter Wax™ family is Leather Salve, an all-natural leather conditioning treatment utilizing shea butter and flaxseed oil to restore suppleness, shine, and water-repellency.
Chris Chase, the founder of Otter Wax™ says that he was tired of the lack of options when it came to taking care of his own leather goods. The only leather conditioners on the market utilized Petroleum Distillates (toxic fumes), Mink Oil (made from the fat of slaughtered mink), or Neatsfoot Oil (rendered from the bones of slaughtered cattle). It was his aversion to these products, that got him asking the question, "If you wouldn't use a product on your own skin, why would you use it on your leather?"
Otter Wax™ Leather Salve is made using a proprietary blend of all-natural waxes and oils along with moisturizing Shea Butter and Flaxseed Oil. The formula also uses a distinct proprietary blend of essential oils, giving Leather Salve the delicate scent of lemongrass and cedar wood.
The Leather Salve is also easy to use. It can be applied with a cloth directly to leather and after about 10 minutes, the leather will absorb the natural oils and leave a thin film of white wax. Chris mentions that this is very important to the ability of his Leather Salve to offer long lasting protection. After the oils have been absorbed, the thin film of wax is buffed to a shine, sealing in the nourishing oils while providing a protective coating against dirt, grime, water, and sun damage.
Otter Wax™ offers a great range of all-natural fabric and leather care products, and everything is made here in the U.S.A. Fall is here, and it's time to dig through your closet to find that trusty old pair of leather boots. Your boots have been good to you for a long time, but this year you can give them some love and attention using All-Natural Leather Salve from Otter Wax™.
