Rubber Care for Footwear and Outdoor Boots

Rubber can dry out, harden and crack over time, especially when exposed to sunlight, dirt, water, temperature changes and outdoor use. Fibertec Shoe Rubber Care Solution helps maintain rubber flexibility and appearance by conditioning the surface.

It is especially useful for rubber boots, natural rubber footwear and the rubber rand often found around hiking boots. Regular care can help extend the usable life and appearance of rubber parts.

It helps refresh and care for rubber without creating an unnecessarily shiny look.
