"Hi. I am Dustin. Here on behalf of Expert Village. Here at A.A Callisters and today we're gonna condition a boot. Now after you clean it like we had in the other step. We want to condition it. Something that most leather carriers use. We use Big 4 which is a leather conditioner. Perfect for this such a situation. Now what we do is we take a nice cloth. Like so. And you'd put probably about I'd say it about 1/4 size amount on there. You want to work into that rag just a little bit. Now we just want nice circular even, not a lot of pressure nice even coat over it. And we wanna let that just kind of work in to the leather. Now this is not going to ruin your leather. It's not going to change the color of your leather at all. What this does is it perks after you clean it. It takes, it almost dries out your leather. So what we do we put that essential oils back into your leather. And just like I said, nice even strokes. Just circular pattern. Don't get too rough with her. We don't want to work the dye out of it. If you know what I'm saying. Just get a nice evening coat all over it. And when you're done just kind of wipe off the excess. And then we wanna let that sit for just a little bit before you go on polishing or put your pants over it because it might rub or leave a residue on your clothing or your carpet. If you wanted to, you can also waterproof. But we'll do that in another step."
