Hi everyone

Does anyone know how to get rid of mould on a leather sofa.
I know I need to kill the spores to prevent it from coming back.
I've read about using diluted bleach, & vinegar has popped on my search!

Can anyone help. thanks alot.

You need something specifically anti fungal.

Do you know of any specifically for leather?

We had rising damp at my old flat, it made the back of the leather settee go mouldy. I used baby wipes!

I think white vinegar is meant to be really good to treat and clean most things.
I ended up moving and buying a new sofa so it was no longer a problem for me!

You need to use an enzyme cleaner that has been specifically formulated for use on leather and will not harm it.
As far as I am aware the ioonly one available is form LTT and is called Em Clean.
Aparently it kills the mould and stops it from returning.
