Make your favorite pieces suitable for any weather, so you won't be left out in the rain.

Umbrella

Treat the cover with acetic clay. It is best to apply with a large brush and leave to dry.

Convertible roof

Wash with car shampoo, leave to dry, then apply liquid impregnator evenly from the center outwards with a brush.

Shoes

Treat with a waterproofing spray immediately after purchase (e.g. Bama, Erdal or Caramba). Spray outdoors from a distance of about 30 cm. Leave to dry and repeat the process twice.

Leather bag

Spray thinly with waterproofing spray before using for the first time, then regularly every six weeks. This also protects against dirt. Treat the zipper with a silicone spray to make it tighter.

Functional jacket

Spray a special product for functional clothing (e.g. Fibertec) on the outside and rub in with your hands. It also waterproofs the inside. Always wash without soap.
