FAQs:
Q: How long will Repel last?
A:Over 12 months / 25,000 km under normal conditions (Outperformed all other tested ceramic coatings in dry and moist long-term testing).
Q: How to store Repel after use? What is the shelf life once opened?
A: Store over 5°C and below 35°C. Frost sensitive.
Q: Can I apply multiple layers of Leather protection?
A: One layer is enough. Two or more layers increase the protective function.
Q: Can I boost Repel with an additional sealant/wax?
A:Yes, we recommend using Geist. Dye & Friction Blocker for maintenance purposes.
Q: How long does Repel need to dry/cure?
A: As it is a water-based product the vehicle can be used after the coating has dried and the surface is touch dry. It takes 48 hours for the coating to reach full strength.
Q: How to maintain leather protected by Repel
A: We recommend using Geist. Rapid Leather Cleaner followed by Geist. Dye & Friction Blocker (available together in the Geist. 3 Minus Care Kit). For very light cleaning, Geist. Surface & Screen Cleaner can also be used.
Q: Does Repel still allow Leather to breath? Why? How?
A: Yes, microscopic pictures show that even small pores remain open. The flexible micropolymer lets air and moisture penetrate the surface.
Q: How and where do other leather care products fit in?
A: Most protected automotive leathers require a light cleaning occasionally for hygienic reasons. Sweat, pollution and spills (sugar, fats) can easily be removed by wiping over with Geist. Rapid Cleaner.
Q: What to do if I still manage to get a leather stain?
A: If any stains do eventually penetrate, Geist. Repel makes removal easier e.g. Geist. Dye and Ink Remover is a solvent-free product that removes many coloured stains without damaging the surface.
Q: Does the leather coating cause the seats to 'yellow' over time?
A: No, Geist. Repel is stable even under strong sunlight conditions as it contains an effective UV filter.
Geist Repel Application Instructions
- Make sure the surface is clean and dry. Test on an unseen area before use.
- Spray a small amount of product on the applicator included and apply on to the surface evenly in a circular motion. Ensure you coat the whole seat, especially in high-traffic areas. Allow to dry naturally for 15-20 mins. Then use a microfibre cloth to gently buff to an even, matt finish.
- If needed, repeat the application to ensure adequate and even coverage. Two thin coatings are, generally better than one thick coat.
- In case of streaking after drying, re-wet the applicator slightly with the coating and apply a thin layer to the affected area and buff immediately.
- Leather imitations (e.g. Vegan leather): the coating may first appear uneven before drying, but the light buffing after the drying time will spread and even out the coating.
