Remove Oil Stains

Remove Dirt and Grease

To make a paste, mix baking soda with a little water. Apply the paste using a soft cloth or sponge, and gently rub the paste into the grease or dirt stains. Rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Use a damp towel to remove the paste, and dry the area with a dry, soft cloth.

Finish With Conditioner

Choose the Right Conditioner

Cleaning Out Stubborn Paint

Paint that is difficult to remove from a leather sofa can still be removed. Using a plastic spatula or dull knife, try to carefully scrape off as much paint as you can at first. Next, lightly blot the stained area with a cloth dipped in a small amount of rubbing alcohol. Avoid rubbing the leather too hard, as this can damage it.

If the paint is still there, you may need to use a leather cleaner specifically to get rid of stains. Always test the cleanser solution on a small, direct area of the furniture to make sure the cleaning solution won't damage the leather sofa.

Regular Vacuuming

Regular vacuuming is a really good practice for cleaning a leather sofa. This helps remove debris, dust, and dirt that may accumulate on the surface. Just be careful not to search the leather with a soft brush.

DIY Sofa Cleaner

Use the spray bottle and white vinegar to clean the leather sofa. Add a few drops of mild dish soap. For the leather upholstery, mix ½ cup olive oil and ¼ cup vinegar and pour into a spray bottle. Spray the cleaner on the surface of the sofa and buff it with a soft cloth.

Caring for Leather Furniture

• Avoid using soaps or detergents, as they can dry out and damage the leather.
  

• Avoid direct sunlight and extremely cold temperatures when keeping leather furniture.
  

• Use appropriate towels or terry cloths for quick blotting. Use talcum or baking powder for greasing.
