But it can take a bit of a bruising. This is the place you sit with your brood on movie nights, partake in a cheeky T.V. dinner now and then, and relax after a hard day\u2019s work.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That rogue pasta sauce spillage, careless red wine stain, or dirt spot doesn\u2019t mean all is lost. A cotton bud dipped in rubbing alcohol is a simple way to lift a mark. Be careful and ensure that you only place the cotton bud on the stain. Move in slow circular motions until you have covered the stain. Once dry, the stain should be no more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For larger stains that cover more surface area, a mix of equal parts warm water and white vinegar can work wonders. With a clean cloth, apply this solution carefully and allow to dry naturally.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What are the best home remedies to clean leather furniture?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/sellers\/pushkin\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-95817\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screenshot-2023-02-02-at-11.52.55-1024x667.png\" alt=\"Louis Vuitton leather trunk\" width=\"640\" height=\"417\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screenshot-2023-02-02-at-11.52.55-1024x667.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screenshot-2023-02-02-at-11.52.55-300x195.png 300w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screenshot-2023-02-02-at-11.52.55-768x500.png 768w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screenshot-2023-02-02-at-11.52.55-1536x1000.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screenshot-2023-02-02-at-11.52.55.png 1840w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/sellers\/pushkin\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Leather Louis Vuitton travel trunk | Pushkin Antiques<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While you could source an expensive leather cleaner, ointment, or cream to preserve your furniture, you don\u2019t have to.

Furniture leather is more delicate and doesn\u2019t have a protective coating as standard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a general rule of thumb, you should never pour anything onto your leather furniture. And oil-based solutions need to be treated with care. Too much, and grease stains can develop. Everything should be applied with a cotton bud, sprayed, or carefully dabbed with a cloth. And never soak your leather. Remember, always spread or spray rather than pour.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How your care for your leather upholstery all depends on the condition of your leather and the type and size of any stain that develops. For example, you\u2019d use a cotton bud and rubbing alcohol for a tiny ink spot but a cornflour and lemon juice mixture for a bolognese sauce spill.
