  detergents to remove the remaining protein and
  prevent the growth of bacteria.

• They are then sent to a tannery to be preserved
  and soften. Once again they are soaked. This time
  in tannic acid solution.

• The tanned hides are washed and cut to a desired
  thickness. They are then go through a dry process.

• They may be streched to avoid shrinkage and
  constantly sprayed with soap and water to avoid
  stiffness. Once dry, they are buffed.

Types of Leather
There are four major types of leather.

• Full-grain leather has not been sanded or buffed
  to remove the natural markings. It is the most
  expensive leather, but gives it great strength,
  durability, and breathability

• Top-grain leather is the top part of full-grain
  leather that has been split. It is then buffed
  and coated resulting in less breathability. It is
  the second highest quality leather, but is also
  the most common.

• Corrected-grain leather has an artificial grain
  added to the surface and are most common for
  pigmented leather

• Split leather is the bottom half of top-grain
  leather, but it can be further broken in down
  into multiple layers.
