This video shows how to impregnate your wading boots so that they last you for years. Mindel Pro wax was used and heated before application onto the wet wader boots. This allows the porous leather to absorb the wax while the boots are drying in the sun, and the leather becomes smooth and long lasting instead of pale and full of cracks. • Simms G3 Boot Care: • Guide boots are made of water-repellent full grain Nubuck leather. They require little maintenance but should be cleaned and dried. • If using in saltwater always clean and rinse to prevent corrosion. Use a brush to remove dust and dirt. Choose an old vegetable brush or toothbrush. • For maximum thoroughness, remove laces prior to cleaning. Use specialized boot cleaner, saddle soap or maybe a mild dishwashing soap with luke-warm water. • Do not use bar soap or detergents. • Do not place wet boots close to a heat source (fireplace, campfire, wood stove, radiator, heater, sunny windowsill) as this can weaken adhesives and cause materials to become brittle or shrink. • Dry using natural methods (air dry) and try to keep them out of the sun for long periods of time. • Boots dry faster when positioned upside-down. If desired, stuff a sheet or two of newspaper into each boot to absorb moisture. Change the paper each hour. • If you see any mold on your boots, brush in a mixture of 80% water and 20% vinegar. • Over time the use of leather conditioners may provide increased water repellency and can prevent cracking and drying of the leather. Store boots in a place where temperatures are stable and normal. Do not store boots in attics, garages, car trunks or any unventilated spaces. • Never put boot in washing machine. • Simms G3 Boot har gått fler mil än många andra vadarskor, och har en överlägsen komfort och passform. Vadarkängan erbjuder ankelstöd, greppvänlig yttersula och slitstyrka. • • Information about disinfectant Virkon S: • READ THE FULL ARTICLE HERE: • https://actavetscand.biomedcentral.co... • https://actavetscand.biomedcentral.co... • READ THE MOST IMPORTANT FINDINGS HERE: • Although the risk of the spread of G. salaris by fishing equipment was not regarded very big [12], have national authorities in Finland, the United Kingdom and Norway provided guidelines or legal regulations on the disinfection of fishing equipment in order to prevent the spread of G. salaris to water systems free of the parasite [13–15]. • Temperature (heating of equipment to 60 °C for 1 h) and the use of a commercial disinfectant blend (Virkon S) have been advised in addition to complete drying or freezing of the equipment. The suggested concentration–time combination for Virkon S, when mentioned in these instructions, has been at least 1 %–15 min. • Some fishermen, especially anglers, fear that the use of disinfectants will harm their valuable equipment. This might reduce their willingness to undertake proper disinfection and perhaps jeopardise the preventive measures. • Virkon S is a commercial oxidising disinfectant blend. The product used in the experiments described here (produced by Antec Int. Ltd, UK.) was labelled as containing the following: potassium peroxymonosulphate, sodium hexametaphosphate, sodium alcylbenzenesulphonate, malic acid, sulphamic acid, sodium chloride, fragrance and an indicator dye. Virkon S is widely used in the disinfection of livestock premises and in aquaculture. • Even one tenth of the standard concentration of the solution resulted in death of the parasite in less than 10 min. This would enable the use of Virkon S in lower concentrations than currently recommended. If a similar margin of safety as discussed in the section on heat disinfection (factor 10–100) was applied, the disinfection time for 0.1 % Virkon S would, however, be impractical (1 h 37 min–16 h 8 min). • This video is not suggesting that you should avoid disinfecting your fishing gear, only that you should follow the instructions on how to disinfect your gear with Virkon S, and never exceed the 15 minutes time. • Additional information is that Virkon S is slightly corrosive and should be avoided on your hands, but most importantly Virkon S is very dangerous to get in your eyes.
