How to clean white eco-leather: 15 ways at home

Furniture made from eco-leather has excellent characteristics and costs much less than a similar option made from genuine leather.
During operation, abrasions, cracks, stains and snags may occur, which sooner or later will lead to the formation of bald spots and holes requiring expensive repairs.

If you think the only way to prevent this is to use protective covers. Then what is the point of spending money on such furniture, the beauty of which will always be hidden under the mask of bedspreads?

There are other ways to care for eco-leather furniture that will preserve its original appearance after many years of daily use.

What products should not be used when caring for eco-leather?

Eco-leather requires delicate handling, and in order not to cause irreparable harm to the material, you should take into account a number of prohibitions.
When cleaning eco-leather products, the following is unacceptable:

1. use brushes, even with soft bristles;
2. use powders containing abrasive particles and bleaching components;
3. clean eco-leather with compounds containing chlorine and acids;
4. remove stains from the surface of the material using bleaches and solvents;
5. treat the material with products intended for other types of fabrics.

In addition, when drying eco-leather products in the fresh air, they should be placed under a canopy; in the sun, the material can become deformed and burn out.

Items made from eco-leather and other synthetic materials require careful care. Depending on the type of contamination, different cleaning agents are allowed.

The following can be dangerous for any product made from eco-leather or leatherette:

• excess moisture;
• exposure to high temperatures;
• cleaning with a steam generator;
• abrasives.

Chemical solvents should be used with caution. Some of them can damage the surface.

You cannot use powdered soda, brushes or hard sponges - they will leave scratches, dirt will penetrate deeper, and it will be impossible to get rid of them. If the surface is glossy, dull spots will remain on it after cleaning with abrasive agents.

What is harmful to artificial leather?

The natural material from which shoes, clothing, and furniture upholstery are made is durable and elastic, but is expensive, and animals are killed for its production. The basis for eco-leather is cotton fabric, onto which polyurethane is applied.

The artificial material does not cause allergies, is not afraid of ultraviolet rays, is durable and wear-resistant, and does not become hard in the cold.

High humidity

Eco-leather does not allow water to pass inside. The machine is not suitable for washing products made of two-layer material; the dirt on them is not washed off with water. Strong humidity has a negative effect on fabric.

Heat

Eco-leather allows heat to pass through well, products made from it do not fade in the sun, but they overheat strongly; washing in hot soapy water is not recommended.

Cleaning with a steam generator

Synthetic fabric with a polyvinyl chloride coating is not inferior in technical characteristics to leather, looks similar to natural material, but if not properly cared for, it loses its attractiveness. You cannot clean products made from it with a steam generator.

Abrasives

If you wipe eco-leather with a hard brush or pumice stone, scratches, microcracks, and small cuts appear on the surface. The fabric is damaged when cleaning with abrasive materials and does not tolerate chlorine.

Daily care rules

Furniture upholstery and clothing made from light eco-leather remain attractive and do not wear out for a long time if the products are regularly and properly cared for:

When cleaning stains, do not press on the surface of the car seat cover or upholstery. A sofa or chair made of two-layer material should be installed away from radiators, making sure that direct rays of the sun do not fall on things.

Citric acid or hydrogen peroxide provide good whitening. The second, moreover, kills bacteria, which is useful for animal owners.

How to care

Caring for synthetic material with a polyurethane coating has its own characteristics. Eco-leather clothes do not become hard or crack; the upholstery retains its shape if you wash things by hand and not in a machine.

Products cannot be cleaned with compounds that contain aggressive acids or sodium chloride.

Dust that has settled on the surface of artificial leather must be regularly removed with a wet cloth; do not soak the two-layer material in water. You should rub stains not with a brush, but with a foam rubber or melamine sponge. It is not recommended to dry synthetic leather clothes in the sun, with hot air from a hair dryer, or to place sofas near radiators or electrical appliances.

Light-colored material turns yellow over time; citric acid, a mixture of milk and egg white, and hydrogen peroxide restore the color. To prevent contamination, dust accumulation, and soften eco-leather, after each cleaning the surface is treated with a conditioner containing silicone, which forms a protective film.

Stains on a white sofa are especially noticeable, so they need to be removed immediately

When buying furniture with light upholstery, especially a white leather sofa, you need to be prepared for regular cleaning. Such things look impressive in the interior, but even careful use does not guarantee perfect cleanliness.

How white eco-leather can get dirty:

• organic matter, in particular dropped food;
• dirt from pets' paws;
• dust accumulating on the surface;
• marks from felt-tip pens, fountain pens or pencils;
• stains from paint, including contact with bright clothing.

Often you have to clean greasy seats and backrests and remove stains of unknown origin that have ingrained into the upholstery.

Main pollution and their causes

When buying a light skirt or dress, purchasing a sofa or chair made of artificial material coated with a layer of polyurethane, you must not forget that white items will have to be cleaned often. Leatherette allows air to pass through well, but quickly becomes dirty, a coating forms on it or yellowness appears, and stains remain:

• from watercolor and oil paint;
• gouache and felt-tip pens;
• from plasticine and pens;
• food and chewing gum.

Dust accumulates on the surface of eco-leather, leaving traces from the paws of pets. The fabric can be cleaned normally, but you need to choose the right product.

Traces from pens and felt-tip pens

If there are children at home, the question of removing traces of their art sooner or later arises in every mother. Fortunately, modern felt-tip pens can be easily washed off with water, but the same cannot be said about ballpoint pens and markers.

Ballpoint pen ink is the most difficult stain to remove. They must be removed as quickly as possible so that the dye does not become embedded in the coating. If the ink is not dry, there is a chance to wash it with soap and a melamine sponge. After drying, you can whiten the surface stained with a pen in several ways.

• Method 1. Nail polish remover. Cleans off fresh ink, markers, and gel pens.
• Method 2. Hairspray. Apply, wait a couple of minutes, wipe off with a cotton pad, repeat if necessary.
• Method 3. Leather polish and solvent for polyurethane glue. First, treat the surface with polish or conditioner to protect it, wait 5 minutes, and then wipe the stain with a solvent. When used correctly, this treatment removes even old hand marks without harming the leatherette.

Methods using slaked soda, alcohols, and citric acid will remove the ink of gel pens and water-alcohol-based markers. Since ballpoint pen paste has a wax-fat composition, these methods will be ineffective for it.

How to remove household stains from leatherette

To remove traces of tea and coffee from your skin, you need to do the following:

• Ammonia should be diluted in water;
• soak a sponge in this mixture;
• rub the stain;
• Remove the remains with a napkin.

Ballpoint pen stains can be removed with hairspray or glass cleaning solution.

• rub the stain until it disappears;
• if this does not happen, then you should add the product to the stain and rub again;
• Remove residues with a damp cloth;
• dry the area with a napkin.

Traces of oil paint are removed using purified turpentine:

• the sponge is moistened in the substance;
• rub the stain until it disappears completely;
• Use a soapy solution to wash the treatment area;
• dry with a napkin.

If you can determine the origin of the stain, then removing it will be much easier. Each of the contaminants requires its own approach. For example, chocolate can be easily scrubbed with glycerin soap. Remains of bitumen and any resin are removed with 90% ethyl alcohol. You can also use turpentine oil. Red wine can be removed with a mixture of vinegar and soap suds.

You should also remember that a fresh stain is always easier to remove than an old one. Therefore, as soon as contamination has been noticed, action must be taken. Rubbing too intensely on the surface of a leather product will damage it. All manipulations must be careful. If you have the opportunity to contact specialists, do not neglect it.

Blood stains

Fresh stains are washed off with regular cold water. You can also apply a cotton swab soaked in 3% hydrogen peroxide to the stained area, leaving it for 2-3 minutes. The stain will dissolve. A soap solution with 5% ammonia will help remove old stains.
