Essential Leather Cleaning Supplies

Before you begin, gather:

  • Microfiber cloths (white recommended)

  • Soft-bristle brush

  • pH-balanced leather cleaner (we recommend Lexol)

  • Distilled water

  • High-quality leather conditioner

  • Vacuum with soft brush attachment

The Professional Cleaning Process

Step 1: Dry Cleaning Preparation

  1. Remove all cushions and pillows

  2. Vacuum entire surface using brush attachment

  3. Pay special attention to crevices and seams

  4. Use soft brush to loosen embedded dirt

Step 2: Deep Cleaning Solution

For most leather types:

  1. Mix 1 tsp mild soap (like Castile or baby shampoo) with 1 cup distilled water

  2. Dampen (don't soak) a microfiber cloth

  3. Wipe in gentle, circular motions

  4. Work in small sections (about 2x2 feet)

  5. Immediately dry with clean cloth

For protected leather:

  • Use commercial leather cleaner instead

  • Follow product instructions carefully

Step 3: Targeted Stain Treatment

For common stains:

  • Oil/Grease: Cornstarch paste (leave overnight)

  • Ink: Rubbing alcohol (test first)

  • Water Rings: Vinegar solution (50/50 with water)

  • Food Stains: Mild soap solution

Step 4: Conditioning (Critical Step!)

  1. Apply leather conditioner with clean cloth

  2. Use circular motions for even coverage

  3. Let absorb for 15-20 minutes

  4. Buff with dry cloth for shine
