Upholestry Leather Care Guide

To clean leathers – use only a white damp cloth that is colourfast.

 
•  Do not use detergents, solvents, abrasives, leather or suede cleaners.
  •  Do not dry clean or machine wash.
  •  Protect from direct sunlight and heat sources, both direct and through heating vents.
  • 
Avoid sharp objects.

Vacuum regularly with the soft brush attachment of the vacuum cleaner to remove dust and grit, then wipe with a soft, colour fast cloth dampened with plain water. This should be done as often as necessary or at least every 2-3 weeks.


Special note


The salts and body oils which occur naturally in human skin can damage the surface of leather if left uncleaned for lengthy periods. In warm or humid weather it is important that the leather be wiped over as often as weekly, particularly if the leather has become damp with perspiration or deposits of body oils are visible on areas such as head rests.

Ensure non colourfast clothing does not come into contact with light coloured leathers.

Always clean along any creases that have developed in the leather and pay particular attention to areas that come in contact with skin as head-rests, arm pads or seat cushions.

Deterioration due to incorrect or inadequate maintenance cannot be considered a fault of the leather and claims due to this will not be entertained.
