You’ll read about the best way to clean a faux leather couch, which commercial product can be used and how much quantity is required to apply on it. But most importantly, how you can clean the couch in an appropriate way so that no harm would happen on the sofa, sometimes using harsh chemicals cause cracks or peels on the fabric. Thus, cleaning shall be done safely.

There’s a set of a beautiful faux leather couch in my house which I’ve bought recently. A couch cannot protect itself, kids, pets and other people can cause damage to it. But you can not change the inevitable, thus you should read this technique to counter urine stain, smell, stains, dust and dirt.

Dust or vacuum both:

Leather and faux leather have one thing in common they have a resilient-seeming surface, and the fabric material is slightly porous. Any dirt and grime can sit into the fabric couch cleaning and cause damage to the upholstery.

Spot Clean Leather:

The faux leather is a kind of material which is hard to clean, you cannot use too much water or any harsh cleaning solution on the leather as it can damage the fabric and cause dryness and cracking.  Only clean those areas which are affected by stains or dirt by using a soft cloth, water and a mild detergent.

Wash faux leather and rinse:

Faux leather can easily tolerate water and cleaning solutions, and it’s always recommended to clean leather using these two items. You can also wash the leather by using a mild detergent after cleaning make sure that you have rinsed the whole fabric, by using a sponge and warm water gently wipe the surface and rinse thoroughly. Also, make sure to reach every crack and clean all the soap from faux leather.

Cleaning mould and mildew:

To clean tough stains and mould, try using rubbing alcohol on the faux leather fabric. In case the leather is real, do not try this method, use vinegar instead, Add a small amount of vinegar in water and then apply it on the fabric surface. Do not wipe the surface to clean, because dirt and grimes would rub against the fabric and cause damage. Dab the cloth and let the spot dry on it’s own.

Conditioning:

A commercial leather conditoner would be appropriate for keeping the leather shiny and prevent the fabric from cracking. You can use silicon-based spray, it’s the best avaliable item to polish and condition the faux leather fabric.
