Hi

Mine are brown and have a few white .marks on them. I tried a leather cleaner from the pound shop which was good but didn't get rid if the white marks also.I was worried it was too chemically. I dont know what the white marks.are but I thnk it's.when 2yo de has spilt.some food and I haven't seen it.

Sorry for rubbish typing thus is a new phone and I'm just getting used to the keyboard!

I don't know, but I'm wondering if the white marks are something white lying on the surface (e.g. porage, or parrot droppings), in which case sponge off with (real white) soap; or are they where the leather dye has been washed off, e.g. by drips of gin or something?

baby wipes are good for everyday cleaning of leather furniture.

Pledge leather wipes. A bit expensive but only need one per sofa per clean.

Baby wipes as a quick cleanup, horse tack cleaner and conditioner for a full clean
