To disinfect leather sofas, one has to take a great amount of care to not harm the material you are dealing with. Leather furniture whether it be recliners or chairs are known for their durability, versatility and classic good looks.
You can enhance the look of a lounge by purchasing a simple leather chair or even something like an ottoman bench or leather padded chair which will go in any modern and contemporary room.
Yet you will need to maintain regular care and cleaning either with specialist leather wipes or with a dry cloth. You can also use a feather duster to remove excess dust and microbes. You may also want to vacuum the chair at least once a month. It is essential you use a hose attachment to clean in crevices and hard-to-reach areas.
Do not use water or soaps as this will damage your product because leather resists stains, so a clean, dry cloth or slightly damp cloth will take care of most minor spills. If you do need a cleaner for your chair or sofa then leather cleaner would be one to select accordingly.
You will also need to treat the leather a few times a year with a leather conditioner including products such as Leather CPR or Lexol. Some conditioners can leave a residue or mark that attracts dust, so shop around carefully and ask the chair manufacturer for recommended products, if necessary. Companies such as DFS or Land of Leather will have expert staff on hand or you can even try independent leather specialists for their expert opinion.
For the purposes of stain removal, make sure you blot grease stains with a soft cloth. Use a cotton swab that is dipped in rubbing alcohol to tackle nasty ink stains. For dark stains on light-coloured leather, you will need to mix equal parts of lemon juice and tartar sauce. Once mixed, just spread gently the solution directly onto the stains with a damp cloth. Ensure you then remove the residue and pat the area dry.
