Leather Sofa

[kkgirl]

Have just got one. How should I treat it, I mean clean and nurture it. Already there are some greasy looking marks and I don't have a clue what to do?

You can clean marks off with warm soapy water - don't use any strong detergents on it.

And you should polish it with a leather polish - i probably do mine 3 times a year, but i have a feeling the shop told me to do it more than that.

I use a really good polish sold in Sainsbury and Asda, but i cannot remember for the life of me what it is called. Its a small box mainly white except for logo, and the wax is in a tiny glass pot but it goes a long way. You rub on with one cloth and polish off with another. My dd nearly 2 years old, enjoys doing it with me so its much more fun to do now!

Thanks for that. I'll give it a little wash, and then get some of the leather polish for later on.

I saw on 'How Clean Is Your House' yu can use saddle soap on it as that cleans and treats it at the same time.

we use autoglym leather care

I use baby wipes for the accidents/ milk/sick etc and specialist leather cleaner from littlewoods to clean properly twice a year
