How to remove stains from leather
September 02, 2022
01. ACT FAST TO REMOVE LEATHER STAINS
“Horror of horrors – a pen has leaked on your leather bag, or a large glass of red wine has landed on it. What to do? You love your bag, you’ve had it for ages, but it’s borderline ruined… nil desperandum. Wipe off any excess you can with a damp cloth and head to the dry cleaners ASAP.”
02. USE NON-TOXIC LEATHER CLEANERS
“As an Accessories Technologist I can only recommend dry cleaners who use a non-toxic, silicone-based cleaning solution instead of Perchloroethylene, which is a harsh, toxic petrochemical that can shrink and fade your leather.”
03. YOUR DRY CLEANER IS YOUR FRIEND
“Get to know your dry cleaner — the best ones are passionate about what they do and really care about looking after your garments.”
