How to clean a natural leather sofa

No two natural leather sofas are the same. The marking in natural leather is part of the beauty and is not defective.

As a general rule, leather sofas need to be wiped thoroughly with dry soft cloth to remove loose dirt. Pay attention to crevices where dirts get trapped. Detergents, solvents, oils, saddle soaps, ammonia, or abrasive cleaners should never be used.

For Light Spots and Spills
Example: Wine spills

Wipe excess liquid up immediately with a clean absorbent cloth or sponge. If necessary, use clean lukewarm water only and let the leather air dry naturally. If water is used, clean the entire area where the spot occurred. Do not dry wet areas with blow dryers or brought under the sun.

For Oil, Grease
Example: Butter, cooking oil

Wipe the leather with a clean, dry cloth and let the remainder of the oil dissipate into the leather. Do not apply water or try to wash a grease spot.

Body and hair oils and perspiration left on leather can cause staining, drying, cracking and/or peeling.

For Stubborn Stains
Example: Ink stain

Apply a mild, non-detergent soap solution with a clean wet sponge. Rinse well and let air dry.
