UGG'i – get ready!
02/10/2012
UGGS aren't just popular with teenagers – they're convenient and practical. Simple sheepskin shoes with rubber soles.
It gets dirty easily too, and teenagers usually wear it on their "bare feet," so it has a specific smell.
Given the high cost of a new pair, you can offer your customers an aquachist service for these UGG that have become dirty and "fragrant." The specialists of KROISLER Incorporated (USA) shared the processing program with us and with you, where Australian UGGS are no less popular than ours.
A pair of new UGGS costs about $160 in America, and a cleaning and restoration service costs 25-30. A profitable business.
So:
Cleaning: use a 50/50 mixture of water and LANADOL AVANT. In order to avoid the formation of halos and smudges, it is necessary to COMPLETELY moisten the entire surface with the specified mixture. It is impossible to use a hard brush and strong mechanical impact, because of the real danger of damaging the suede pile.
Just like for the rest of the suede items in the aquachist, you should select the loading by color in order to avoid shading.
For intense unstable colors, additional use of COLOFIX may be required during washing and dressing.

For UGG dark colors, the dosage of LANADOL Liqueur in the last bath should be increased to 90 ml/steam.
After washing, it is recommended to apply a HYDROBLUE (20-50 ml) to the still wet UGGS for dirt and water repellent protection, and if there is a dyeing chamber, you can use the well-known WR 691 from SHARON (France) for faster drying.
In case of severe color loss, it may be necessary to "tint" with a chamois dye COLORTIME produced by SHARON (France) according to the standard suede processing process.
Drying is a very important stage. It should take place "in natural" conditions, and inserts must be used to preserve the shape. A dry, warm, ventilated room is perfect for this, and even better, a special drying cabinet, if there is one, and if not, we are ready to offer it to you.
After drying, the inserts must be removed, and the UGGS themselves must be "rolled" in a cold drying drum to give the suede surface a pleasant softness and neck. The final finish should be carried out with a soft brush with natural bristles.
