HOG 8 tips to take care leather furniture

Introduction


It is no secret that leather furniture is very pleasing to look at and a pleasure to touch. After all, leather has been used since ancient times to make objects both more durable and beautiful. While leather has its advantages, it also requires special care to maintain its beauty and softness over time. Antique Furniture Sydney has a wide range of leather furniture to fill your home needs.

This article is intended to provide you with some essential tips on how best to keep your leather furniture in top condition.


  1. Wipe Your Leather Furniture Down

The more regularly you wipe your furniture down, the less frequently you'll need a deeper cleaning. Don't just focus on the steaks and stains, either. An all-purpose cleaning sponge and some leather cleaner can help eliminate odours hanging around. Leather has natural oils that help keep it supple and attract dirt, debris, and stains. A good wipe-down will keep your leather furniture clean and give you the chance to check for any cracks or peeling while you're at it.


  1. Vacuum Your Leather Furniture Carefully

If you are looking for the beauty of your leather furniture, try to get rid of dust with the vacuum cleaner. Choose a vacuum cleaner with a brush roll to clean the surface of your furniture from dirt and keep it free from stains. Move your vacuum cleaner slowly over the surface to diminish the chance of static electricity discharging and damaging the leather.


  1. Apply a Leather Conditioner Regular

Since leather is a natural product, it is essential to care for it properly. Leather can soak up moisture and keep moisture inside it. Leather products are susceptible to stains and absorb spilled liquids quickly. This constant moisture can dry out and cause cracks in the surface of your piece. Use a Leather Conditioner to keep out the moisture and keep your furniture looking good for years to come. Depending on the type of leather, you can apply a conditioner every six to twelve months.



  1. Don't Delay If There Is a Spill

While leather is water-resistant and stain-resistant, it won't hold up well in a slip-and-fall, like on a wet floor or dirt. If something does spill on your low-maintenance furniture, don't delay. The longer you hesitate, the more challenging it will be to remove. The sooner you treat a spill, the better. A large spill may need professional cleaning more than a few spare rags and quicker-drying liquids. Quick action will keep your leather furniture away from disaster, able to regain its lustre longer.


  1. Avoid Chemicals And Soap

Leather deterioration can be caused by exposure to chemicals and soaps used in cleaning. Avoid harsh cleaning chemicals, oils, or hair care products like hairspray or mousse - they can damage the leather's finish. Most cleaning can be done with a dry cloth, or if using a wiping material, use a damp cloth only. If a spill occurs or your piece requires deeper cleaning, we recommend a professional cleaner.


  1. Buff Gently And Often

Buff leather regularly with a good quality polishing product. This will help remove ingrained dirt and restore the softness of the leather. It helps restore the smooth appearance of the leather, leaving it conditioned for up to two weeks. A quick buffing with a homemade cleaner will give your leather a luxurious shine while restoring any lost moisture.


  1. Avoid Bright Lighting

Leather is often treated with coatings that help preserve its attractive appearance and hide blemishes. Exposure to very bright light will speed up the fading process. This is because leather would be aged more quickly than other fabrics in natural light. Do not place items at strategic locations, such as by a window or near a heat source that may cause fading.


  1. Read the Labels Carefully

Although leather is relatively resistant to many substances found in everyday household cleaners, some can cause it harm. Be sure to check the labels on any cleaner or detergent you might use and avoid using any that aren't suitable for use on leather.


Conclusion


As leather is a long-term investment, routine care and maintenance shouldn't be ignored. The proper attention to your possessions will help them look good for years to come. The best way to keep your leather furniture looking great should not be difficult, as they all need some simple cleaning and care. As long as you have some essential tools at home, the only thing required is a bit of time.
