LEATHER FURNITURE FACTS AND CARE TIPS Leather furniture is a hefty investment and those with great taste and craze for leather sofas should dare to buy since these luxuries come with handsome maintenance costs. Here’s how you can keep you leather sofas anew:
Use dry cloth dusting and vacuuming twice a week or more, depending on your availability, under normal conditions.
You can use a trusted leather conditioner every 6 months for a shining and fresh look.
Keep your furniture away from direct sunlight which can discolor and fade the leather if placed under high temperature.
Always do a spot test before deciding on a single cleaning agent for your furniture, on a small hidden portion so that you can see the effects and look for any side effects within 2-3 days.
Do not delay the cleaning of your leather furniture if there are any liquid spills. They can grease and leave stains on the material which can discolor and damage the surface and spoil the look.
Use a soft cloth to clean your furniture to avoid any scratches.
Do not use oils, polish, varnish, detergent soaps, cleaning solvents and ammonia water.
Avoid placing any sharp objects or objects with pointy edges, on the surface of the leather to avoid scratches on the leather which cannot be corrected.
