Here’s Tucson Homes Newsletter December 2016 – Cleaning Leather Sofa or Chair

Rule of thumb, always follow the manufacturer’s suggestion on cleaning. Another thing to consider is what type of leather you have in order to clean the leather properly. Recently there was a Houzz article explaining the various leather types. A safe route to clean your leather is add a mild neutral-pH nondetergent liquid soap (Neutrogena or Dove) to distilled water. Clean using a white microfiber cloth.
