EMERGENCY CLEANING
If a major spill has occurred requiring immediate attention, do the following:
• Use a mild unscented soap with distilled water
• Dab the spot carefully with the solution
• Avoid soaking the leather
• If necessary, sponge the area but do not over wet as water can shrink fabrics or their backing fibres.
IF UNSURE SEEK THE ADVICE OF A PROFESSIONAL
DO NOT USE
• Harsh chemicals like acetone (nail polish remover), bleach, house-hold cleaners or stain removers
• Coloured shoe polish as it will run onto clothes
• Spray polishes, saddle soaps, waxes, "Hide foods"
These create a sticky surface attracting dirt and causing irreversible damage, which can over time, build up
layers which will eventually crack, damaging the leather underneath.
