At first my thoughts were that it&#8217;s related to the protection duration but it relates to age of the leather surface you plan to use it on. One kit is for leather that is less than 3 years old hence &#8220;3 Minus&#8221; and the other is &#8220;3 Plus&#8221; for older than 3 years.<\/p>\n<p>Now that we know what each kit is made for, there is only one difference in the kits and that is the 3 Plus comes with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Geist-M133\/Leather-Conditioner-P2959\/500-ml-S1\/\">Geist. Leather Conditioner<\/a>. Geist. states that when your leather is less than 3 years old the leather surface is still at an optimum balance moisture and oil so the leather conditioner isn&#8217;t needed. As you approach 3 years is where the leather conditioner comes into play as the leather starts to lose moisture. <\/p>\n<p>The Geist. kits come with everything you need to clean and protect your leather surface and get the 3 Plus to moisturize leather surfaces over 3 years old. I love myself a nice comparison chart even for something this simple, it helps me visually compare the products, so here you go.<\/p>\n<h2>Geist.
