Gel decorations meant for glass were put on the arm of my leather couch. I now have multicolored fall leaves impreganated on the arm. I tried baby wipes, but the gel decorations seem to have left a hard film over the dye that the wipe cannot penetrate.
I rather like the leaf stains, and I'd just go with them. I can't think of anything that won't harm the leather, sorry. Avoid alcohol, acetone and ammonia - and these are just the things that might work! So I'd rather have a pretty pattern than damaged leather.
I had large globs and spray spots of white house paint that had dried for months on a new gray leather couch. It took me about thirty minutes to remove all the paint using the vehicle leather wipes.
I have dark perspiration stains on my buckskin couch. How do I remove them?

I have no idea what took the color out of my leather couch on the head area. I wiped down the entire couch with the cleaner provided by manufacturer and it took the color off the head area only.
By Dave
It is obviously not the cleaner, but whatever hair products that you have been using. I don't think there is anything that can be done about this.
When my sofa started to loose colour at the head, I washed it in soapy water. Must of rubbed too hard, as the head area ended up completely removed. Had to call in a professional to put a complete new piece of leather on the back of sofa. He informed me that the area lost its colour due to grease coming of husbands head, made worse by having little hair!
I have a light color leather couch and can't find anything that will clean it without harming the leather.

Try a feed store or Tack (for horses) shop and get saddle soap, jsut follow directions. It's made for cleaning leather safely. Yes it does involve getting the leather wet, and, you may need to get Neets foot oil or another leather conditioner and, a protective spray to keep the sofa soft, and, minimize future cleanings but, it won't change to color or damage the leather.

How do I clean mildew off a leather settee? I have tried Stardrops; this does not work. I also tried furniture polish; this did not work.
By Julia
It can not be done. Don't put your family at risk. Throw it away.
Try saddle soap, it works on my horses saddle if it's been left in the tack room for a while
How do you clean a cream leather sofa? What can I use other than leather cleaner?
By Marian
To clean a leather settee, don't buy all the expensive cleaning products, buy some soap that you wash your hands with. Get a bucket of warm water, wet the soap and rub the soap onto the leather with a wet cloth it brings out all the dirt, etc.
Include your leather sofa in your weekly house cleaning. A basic vacuum and wipe over will reduce oil and dirt build up.
Using a small cell sponge to clean your leather. It will give the same advantage as using a foaming cleaner. Rinse it well.
How can I clean my light color leather sofa without damaging it? I was told to dissolve a few drops of dishwashing liquid in water and use a sponge to wash it and then just dry it.
Are cream colored leather sofas hard to keep clean? We are purchasing one next week and I am worried about keeping it clean? How it will wear, being that it is cream colored?

I have had a cream leather sofa for about ten years and find it very easy to care for. I simply dust it with a dry cloth most of the time. Any spots may be easily wiped off, I use a damp cloth, not wet!
I slept on my newer dark leather couch and got very hot with a black t-shirt on. When I woke up, ink from my shirt was imprinted on the couch. Please somebody give me an idea of how to remove this.
Hello Rocky,
In regards to your leather stained sofa seeing that it is new, did you purchase a warranty on stains? If so, my advise would be to contact your warranty service and have this taken care of professionally and leave the problem in their hands. If you had not purchased a warranty then the problem lies on you.
If your leather is (Protected/Pigmented):
Use the same steps as Aniline
If your leather is (Nubuck):
Step 1. Use Nubuck Cloth
Step 2. Apply Leather Degreaser
Step 3. Foam Cleaner
Step 4. Use Nubuck Cloth
Step 5. Apply Eco Protector
Dry in between steps with hair dryer
