Tips for cleaning and maintaining genuine leather sofas to restore their shine!

As people's living standards gradually improve, their demands for quality of life are also increasing. Therefore, high-end genuine leather sofas have become a popular choice. Genuine leather sofas are beautiful, elegant, and comfortable to sit on. Since you've spent a lot of money on a genuine leather sofa, it's essential to maintain it properly, otherwise it's easily damaged. Below is a detailed introduction to cleaning genuine leather sofas, teaching you how to clean and maintain them.

1. When wiping dust off the sofa, pay special attention to the center of the seat cushions. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove larger dust and debris. Then, dampen a cotton towel, wring it out, and gently wipe the sofa, being careful not to damage the leather. Leather sofas manufactured by genuine leather sofa manufacturers accumulate a lot of dust over time. If this dust isn't removed regularly, it can negatively impact your health.

2. If there are stains on the leather, you can slightly dampen a towel and apply a little soapy water to wipe them. This is very effective for shallow, clumpy stains and is much cheaper than using professional leather cleaners. Use a mild, natural, plant-based soap; strong soaps will cause the leather to dry and stiffen. As the stain gradually comes off, wipe it away with another clean, dry cloth. This ensures that the leather surface remains relatively dry throughout.

3. To remove stubborn stains, you can use a little whitening toothpaste. Use a children's toothbrush to clean while wiping with a clean cloth, making sure to wipe away any residue from the leather.

4. If there are mold spots on the leather, spray them with a diluted solution of vinegar and water, and wipe them quickly before the leather absorbs the moisture. Vinegar is a mild disinfectant that can remove aflatoxin. Regardless of the brand of genuine leather sofa, if mold spots appear on the surface, they should be cleaned promptly.

5. If the stains are severe, use leather cleaner (available online). Regular cleaners may strip the leather of its natural oils, causing it to dry and crack. Prepare a leather cleaning soap or a product containing natural liquid paraffin, and minimize the use of petroleum-based products. Natural waxes are more effective and suitable for leather surfaces than oil-based products, but excessive use may impair the air exchange on the leather surface.

6. Ink marks. These can be wiped with a soft eraser. To prevent fading, you can first drip a small amount of cold water onto the stain. Leather sofas in the living room are frequently used and easily get dirty, so they need to be cleaned regularly.

7. If you get bubble gum stuck on a leather sofa, it's not suitable to scrape it off with your hands. Place ice cubes on it to let the bubble gum solidify, then pick it off with a toothpick and wipe away the surface stains with a fine linen cloth.

8. If there are coffee stains, fruit juice stains, urine stains, etc. on the leather sofa, first wipe it with a dry cloth, and then wipe it with a damp cloth. After cleaning, turn on the cooling fan to dry the leather sofa or open the window to allow natural ventilation and allow the water vapor on the sofa to evaporate as soon as possible.
