Care & Maintenance Your churburg breastplate ships with a protective coat of oil so wipe it clean before first use. Apply a light coat of oil after use to help protect the steel from moisture and rust. Keep the armor clean and dry after each use. Condition the genuine leather straps occasionally with leather balm or oil for flexibility. Store in a cool, dry place away from damp environments. Note: Each breastplate is individually handcrafted therefore differences in finish, rivets, polishing, and shaping are natural.
