Leather Care

 

NEGLEGENCE OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS WILL VOID YOUR 12 MONTH WARRANTY

 

 

Maintenance of the leather on your lounge is vital to its longevity. Leather requires special attention and treatment to keep it in the best possible condition.

 

All leather products will fade and stretch over time, especially in high wear areas, this is unavoidable.

 

Leather sofas are often purchased for the ability to wipe spillages off easily. If a spillage occurs on your leather, soak up the spill quickly with a dry, dye-free cloth then follow with the moistened cloth process below.

 

The accumulation of body hair/oils, sweat, dirt and grime will accelerate the wear process, which will cause discolouration and surface damage. When cleaning pay special attention to wear areas such as seats, arm rests and headrests which come in direct contact with skin or hair.

 

CAREFULLY VACUUM ANY DIRT OR GRIT FROM THE LEATHER AT A MINIMUM OF MONTHLY, ALTHOUGH WEEKLY IS PREFERABLE.

 

WIPE DOWN ONCE A WEEK WITH A SOFT, CLEAN, DYE-FREE CLOTH SLIGHTLY MOISTENED WITH WATER TO REMOVE DUST, GRIME AND PERSPIRATION.

 

EVERY 3-4 MONTHS (minimum) THE LEATHER MUST BE CLEANED WITH APPROPRIATE LEATHER CLEANING PRODUCTS. CLEAN FIRSTLY WITH STANDARD LEATHER CLEANER FOLLOWED BY TREATMENT WITH STANDARD LEATHER CONDITIONER. WHEN APPLYING TREATMENT, BE SURE TO RUB THE SURFACE GENTLY. ALTERNATIVELY, CONTACT A LEATHER CLEANING SPECIALIST TO CLEAN YOUR LEATHER FOR YOU. (Look in the Yellow Pages under ‘Leather Goods – Reconditioning’).

 

Do not use shoe polish, floor or laundry cleaners, solvents, cleaning fluids, abrasive powders or paste cleaners or furniture polish on your leather.

 

Avoid hard rubbing or scrubbing and allowing hard or sharp objects to come in contact with the leather.
