WHICH SOAP TO CLEAN THE LEATHER OF A SOFA, SEAT OR ARMCHAIR?

Start by cleaning the leather with a special leather sponge (non-abrasive) and glycerin soap .

  • Moisten the sponge and wring it out well
  • Put glycerin soap on the sponge
  • Wash the sofa part by part
  • Then rinse the washed part with a second clean, damp sponge (prevents soap residue from becoming embedded)
  • Let the leather dry and breathe for at least a day

HOW TO REPAIR A HAG OR HOLE IN A LEATHER SOFA, ARMCHAIR OR SEAT?

We offer self-adhesive pieces of leather for sale to stick a “bandage” on your damaged leather item. This dressing will prevent the hole from getting bigger but unfortunately will not be able to completely repair it. Self-adhesive leather will stop degradation and allow your leather item to last longer!

If you want to have an adhesive piece of leather that is as close as possible to the original color, we advise you to opt for vegetable-tanned leather, then dye it and glue it with neoprene glue.
