How to clean white eco-leather chairs: tricks for perfect cleaning

How do you clean and stain white leather? Let's see the solutions and products to clean white eco-leather.

White eco-leather is one of the most common finishes for modern chairs: the pattern is very clear, in fact it is a soft, elegant and beautiful material, also characterized by a good quality-price ratio, as for the Monica Armchair, cosy, comfortable and elegant. However, white is always white, so it can often happen to have the need to clean our chairs or any other object in the same material (think about when we decide to wash eco-leather bag). Let's discover the tricks to stain white ink and how to clean yellowed white leather.

Biros stains on eco-leather, what to do?

If we have children or maybe we like crosswords, it can happen that we have ballpoint pens on our sofa or on our faux leather chairs. Let's not panic, always remembering that faux leather is a material with a good degree of impermeability, so the stain is unlikely to penetrate deeply. At the same time we must always keep in mind the delicacy of eco-leather and avoid using very effective but aggressive products (such as bleach).

An ecofriendly solution is to clean eco-leather with bicarbonate: simply mix a spoonful of bicarbonate for every litre of lukewarm water and wipe the stain with a well wrung microfibre cloth. Be careful not to exert too vigorous an action, so as not to risk damaging the fabric. Once the stain has been removed, we can pass the same solution all over the sofa or chair to even out the cleaning.

Stains on the leather sofa, what to do?

Whenever possible, we should avoid sitting on a white or light eco-leather sofa with jeans or dark clothes, because there is a risk of leaving bad spots on the fabric (especially in the warmer season or if the clothes are damp or wet). If the damage is done, we can clean it with bicarbonate of carbonate or we can try to clean an eco-leather sofa with steam.

It is a quick, effective and hygienic cleaning solution, especially if we have animals in the house and they also occupy the sofa. Always considering the greater delicacy of eco-leather, we should first of all choose the right tool (each steam cleaning machine should have a brush dedicated to cleaning the leather) and be careful not to over-soak the sofa with water during cleaning operations, always carefully removing excess water and humidity (otherwise other stains may form).

The steam system can also be very effective for cleaning car eco-leather, always taking care to eliminate excess humidity: using this system you can not only clean the surfaces of the seats in the best possible way, but also eliminate the annoying odours (such as smoke) that can be found inside the interior of many cars.

And after cleaning, we must also pay the same attention to the maintenance of the eco-leather: there are special treatments available on the market to keep the eco-leather of the sofa or chairs as soft as possible, so that the beauty of these objects is preserved over time. This type of treatment is also effective in preventing stains, because it helps to maintain the impermeability of the eco-leather. With these treatments we can enjoy our eco-leather sofa, like the Angel sofa, taking advantage of its comfort and keeping its beauty intact over time.

Even if there are no obvious stains, carefully cleaning our eco-leather seats every two months will help to maintain them at their best.

How do you wash your eco-leather backpack?

The systems seen for cleaning faux leather sofas can also be applied to different objects, such as bags or backpacks. In this case you must always be careful not to use aggressive products or water that is too hot (machine washing, which would damage the leather fabric due to the excessive force of the washing itself, must be absolutely avoided).

The simplest solution is to prepare a solution of lukewarm water and mild soap, perhaps using small flakes of Marseille soap and using a well wrung out microfibre cloth to clean the entire surface of the object. Always be careful not to over moisten the leather: after washing, it might be a good idea to dry your backpack and bag in a ventilated place, possibly outdoors, but avoiding direct exposure to sunlight.

As far as the storage of eco-leather bags and backpacks is concerned, we can follow the instructions seen for sofas and chairs: therefore, proceed with a gentle cleaning at least every two months and, after the cleaning process, provide a nourishing treatment with a special product: in this way backpacks and bags will always look good over time.
