Leather Care
How
do I take care of my leather product?
Leather is a natural material and, if properly cared
for, will maintain its beauty and patina for many years. Direct exposure
to sunlight can cause leather to fade, so always protect leather from
sunlight and do not put your leather product close to direct heat.
Our leather Bean Bags shouldn´t require much in
the way of maintenance. Some of our lighter shades may need more attention
than the darker ones. Regular care of your leather Bean Bag or other leather
product will ensure its lasting quality. Over time wrinkles and creases
will form naturally to give your Bean Bag a soft inviting look, which
will be unique.
LEATHER CARE & MAINTENANCE
For normal maintenance over the years, we suggest the
following:
Dust your leather product weekly just as you would a
glass table with a dry clean towel.
Once a month clean your leather Bean Bag or other product with a soft
damp cloth taking care not to soak the leather.
If the Bean Bag or other product requires a more thorough
treatment use a soft damp cloth and a light soapy solution. Apply the
solution in circular motions until the dirt is removed. Repeat this process
using clean water if necessary. Do NOT use a hair dryer or any other domestic
appliance to dry your leather Bean Bag.
Every three to six months, depending on use, clean your
leather product with a proper leather conditioner. Only use an approved
leather conditioner on your leather Bean Bag or product.
Do not use domestic products, polishes, wax polishes
or saddle soap to clean your leather Bean Bag as this can damage the product.
Do not use any other product or method of cleaning that
is not recommended by misterbeanz.com
Do not let belts, buckles, studs, zips or any sharp object
come into direct contact with the Bean Bag as this can damage the product.
Avoid drying out the leather by taking care not to position
it next to an open fire or next to another source of direct heat. Modern
leathers are treated so that they resist heat and flames. DO not hold
a naked flame against your leather Bean Bag or leather product.
These
cleaning instructions ONLY apply to our leather products and do NOT apply
to our suede or other fabric ranges.
Note: All leather will stain from liquids,
body oils, and perspiration. We recommend you clean any stains immediately.
For stubborn spots and stains, blot excess liquid immediately with a clean,
absorbent sponge or cloth. If necessary, use a slightly dampened white
cloth and wipe the entire affected area gently two or three times by blotting
dry with soft cloth. Do not use a hair dryer to accelerate drying time.
Repeat this process as needed and let air dry naturally.
Always test-clean on a hidden area of leather to confirm
results before you attempt to apply a treatment. On any leather, there
can be some transfer of colour when applying a slightly damped white cloth
to stubborn stains. So do not rub it hard, just gentle smooth strokes.
