A Mama's Guide on How to Clean a Leather Couch
To clean a leather couch, start by preparing a gentle cleaning solution. This can be done by combining 1 tablespoon of MamaSuds Liquid Castile Soap with a gallon of warm water. Once the solution is ready, take a damp, soft cloth and soak it in the solution. Using circular motions, gently cleanse the leather surface. Afterward, wipe the couch again with a rinse cloth to remove any residual soap. To prevent cracking or discoloration, make sure to blot dry any excess moisture with a towel. It is important to avoid using harsh chemicals like bleach and ammonia, as they can damage the leather. Additionally, excessive water should also be avoided to prevent any issues. For ongoing leather care, applying a conditioner according to the manufacturer's instructions is recommended to maintain the suppleness of the couch. In case of stubborn stains, it may be necessary to seek professional cleaning from a specialist, although this option can be more expensive. By utilizing natural ingredients and employing proper cleaning techniques, the leather couch can be kept in great condition for years to come.
