Our cream and waterproofing work well on dang near all leathers. Most leathers have a dye and/or finish of some sort — the products work great on that. Open grain leather and light colored leathers will darken more. On exotic hides, white or light leathers, or leathers with delicate finishes be sure to test on small hidden area first. Suede or rough-out leathers will also darken considerably and will be difficult to buff out because they're not smooth. On suede the fluff will be matted down.
