When applied, it becomes sticky and does not dry immediately.
It turns white when applied.
Can’t we solve this long-standing problem as a manufacturer?
The development of Quasar started here.
Overturn common sense
100% mink oil
It becomes sticky and white.
The reason this phenomenon occurs is that the ingredients contain a lot of saturated fatty acids.
In other words, some existing products contain unnecessary ingredients for leather maintenance.
How can we make the oil seep into the leather quickly?
Our answer = 100% mink oil
The main ingredient of the product is composed of mink oil, and we aimed to create a product that can soak oil into the microscopic gaps in the leather fibers.
The main ingredient of Quasar is only mink oil.
The main ingredients of some mink oil leather care products contain beeswax, petroleum-based oil (labeled as oil and fat), lanolin (mutton tallow), and organic solvents.
Because Mink Seal Corporation is a manufacturer of mink oil that manufactures, refines, and wholesales it, it can produce a product called 100% mink oil to soak into the small gaps in the leather fibers.
Overturn common sense②
The overwhelming infiltrating power cultivated in cosmetics is used for leather care.
“Please tell me good cosmetics.”
When I've been involved in cosmetics for many years, I get this question on many occasions.There is no clear answer to this question.

Mink Oil
What is mink oil?
What is mink oil?
Mink oil that is a popular ingredient in cosmetics
Mink oil is oil obtained from the tissue of the subcutaneous fat of mink, and has been popular as a raw material for cosmetics in Europe and Japan for more than 40 years.
Ingredient number 552416 Display name: Mink oil
The characteristic of mink oil is that it is rich in palmitoleic acid and oleic acid that are polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are the main components of the sebum membrane covering the human body.
Therefore, it has excellent permeability into the skin and is widely used in basic cosmetics, sunscreens, emollient creams, hand lotions, body lotions, bath oils, shaving creams, hair care products, and treatment agents.
※Standard oil and fat analysis test method
Why apply mink oil or horse oil to leather items since long ago?
Mink oil, a synonym for leather care.
Mink oil and horse oil are high permeable oils.
Unsaturated fatty acid in animal fats is an ingredient that is an indicator of the oil’s permeability.
There are two kinds of fatty acids in animal fats.
The obvious difference is that, for example, if you heat a highly saturated beef tallow to extract oil and set to room temperature, it hardens white and becomes sticky like the plate of cold roasted meat.
However, mink oil remains dry like salad oil even at room temperature.
This is the characteristic of unsaturated fatty acids.
This dry state is evidence of "high permeability".
In other words, if it remains white and solidified like so-called lard of beef tallow and mutton tallow, it is difficult for oil to infiltrate into the dense fibers such as leather.
Since mink oil contains a large amount of the unsaturated fatty acid of this dry oil, the oil can infiltrate into the microscopic tiny gaps in the leather fibers.
That's why mink oil has long been used as a synonym for leather care.
Why do leather items need aging care?
It's easy to understand if you think of it as the common denominator "leather, skin".
The theory is the same as our aging care.
In this way, caring for leather items can delay aging.
