Battles Leather Care Zip Lubricant for Riding Boots
Description
Battles Leather Care - Zip Lubricant for Riding Boots, Shoes, Bags & Clothing
Battles Leather Care is a zip maintenance product made for intensely used metal or plastic zippers on riding boots, shoes, bags and clothing. It is best for riders and grooms whose long boots or yard bags are zipped up and down several times a day, where grit and dust can leave the slider stiff.
One bottle covers both zip materials, so it suits tall riding boots, jodhpur boots, holdalls, grooming bags and zipped jackets alike.

FAQ
What is Battles Leather Care used for?
It is used on intensely used metal or plastic zippers on riding boots, shoes, bags and clothing, helping the slider move freely along the teeth.
Can I use it on plastic zips as well as metal ones?
Yes. It is suitable for both metal and plastic zippers, so one bottle can cover most of the zips in your tack room.
How often should I treat my riding boot zips?
As often as the zips are used. Long boots worn daily on the yard benefit from frequent treatment, while competition boots need it less often.
Will it mark my breeches or boots?
Wipe away any surplus after applying so nothing transfers onto clothing or saddle flaps, and test on a small hidden area of coloured or delicate fabric first.
Can it be used on non-equestrian items?
Yes. The same approach works on shoes, holdalls, luggage and zipped jackets around the house as well as on the yard.
Is it for use on the horse?
No. It is an equipment care product only and should not be applied to the horse. Store it closed and out of reach of children.
