Home > Leather Sofa Care and Maintenance

Leather is a natural product and requires some care to maintain the natural beauty of the hide.

Under normal usage/conditions regular dusting and vacuum cleaning in crevices or bottoms is all that is necessary to clean your furniture.

• The use of a good leather conditioner is recommended every 6-12 months.

• For minor spots and spills, wipe up any excess liquid immediately with a clean absorbent cloth or sponge.

• If necessary, use a lightly moistened soft cloth with clean lukewarm water and let air dry naturally. If water is used, clean the entire area where the spot occurred.

• Do not use soap or soak the stain heavily with water. This may cause more damage than the stain itself.

• If the stain persists, it is recommended that the leather be cleaned by a professional leather specialist to avoid any potential damage to the leather.

• For butter, oil, or grease wipe off excess with a clean dry cloth, and then leave alone as the spot should dissipate into the leather after a short period of time.

• Do not use saddle soap, cleaning solvents, furniture polish, oils, varnish, abrasive cleaners, detergent soaps or ammonia water.

• Protect your furniture from sun and direct light like any upholstery material. It can fade to some degree if exposed to the sun.

• These are recommended or suggested methods of cleaning. Always try any cleaning method in a hidden area first to convince yourself of the results.

• For minor or slight scratches on the surface, use a chamois or clean fingers to gently buff the scratch. If needed, moisten lightly with distilled water to work scratches out.
