Sometimes, you know it needs a real deep cleaning.
Our couch gets a lot of use. We have a “no food on the couch” policy but go explain that to our two-year-old. He likes to unwind after a long day playing with Magna Tiles and trains, with a nice bag of Bamba and a sippy cup of juice…on the couch.
So, how do we clean that couch? On a regular basis, I use leather conditioning wipes like Weiman’s. They are perfect for the daily wipe up. Read about the wipes I like here.
When you need a deeper cleaning, or you feel that the whole surface has a darker layer (is it dirt? Grime? Probably just residue from pants and skirts), here’s what you do:
First, vacuum all crevices really well.
Once done, use the Weiman wipes again to recondition the leather.
We found that rubbing alcohol removed this stain here really well. [after]
