Q: What types of staining can Leather Stain Remover be used for?
A: Leather Stain Remover is specifically formulated to be incredibly versatile and has been tested on an extensive range of everyday stains including; dye transfer from clothing, food and beverage spills, sticky marks, nail varnish and paint. All of these household stains can be tackled effectively with our Leather Stain Remover.
Q: Can I use Leather Stain Remover on all types of leather?
A: Most, but not all; it is not suitable for use on items made from suede and nubuck leathers and is also less effective when used on absorbant leathers such as aniline or pull-up leathers. If you have an aniline or pull-up leather item, you should use Leather Degreaser to remove the stain.
Leather Stain Remover is safe and effective when used on all other types of leather.
Q: Will Leather Stain Remover help to protect against future staining?
A: No, it is formulated to be a stain remover only, it will not guard against future staining. We offer a highly effective leather stain protector in the form of our Leather Protection Cream, which forms an invisible barrier on the surface of your leather that repels grime and spillage of all types, holding them on the surface until they can be cleaned off and preventing future staining. This can be purchased individually or as part of the Leather Care Kit.
Q: Is Leather Stain Remover difficult to use and will it damage my leather?
A: Leather Stain remover is designed to be used for quick and effective stain removal and is very simple to use, with full instructions provided. It is formulated to contain a mixture of mild solvents that are effective at breaking down stubborn stains but will not damage your leather. By carefully following instructions and applying the product in line with the instructions, with a sponge instead of directly on to the surface being treated, you can ensure that your stains will be removed without fear of causing damage to your leather.
Q: Is Leather Stain Remover suitable for removing stains from any leather item?
A: Yes, as long as your leather item is not made from some of the more sensitive leathers listed above, it is suited for use on any leather item including: Sofas, chairs and upholstery, car interiors, clothing, shoes and handbags.
Q: Will the Stain Remover remove ink from leather?
A: No. For that you should use our Ink Remover Kit which is designed specifically for removing ink.
If you have an absorbent leather such as aniline or pull-up we recommend extracting the stain with our Leather Degreaser.
