This depends what type of leather it is.  if it is very absorbent then the dirt and stains will have soaked into the leather and will not clean out.


For general cleaning you need to use a good quality water based foam leather cleaner. Strong cleaner or Maxi Cleaner if it is very dirty. With light coloured leather dye transfer from clothing can be a problem although using a good quality leather protector will help inhibit this.

DO NOT use anything containing oils, waxes or silicones. (Most 'conditioners' contain waxes or oils) and furniture polish contains silicones

BABY WIPES are the worst thing you can use as they will destroy the finish on your leather. They are very strong alkiline cleaners to neutralise urine (acid) on babys skin so they are not the right thing to use on leather.

Saddle soap is too harsh to use on fine leather.

A lot of leather wipes contain chemicals which will also destroy the finish or leave residues on the leather which will damage it. They are not cheap in the long run as you would need a lot to clean a whole leather sofa. A bottle of foam cleaner should do your furniture 1-2 times.

Fairy liquid contains more salt these days to get dishes clean and this will break the finish down on your leather. This has been verified by the manufacturers (as with the baby wipes).

You should also follow cleaning with a good water based leather protector which will act like a 'scotchgard' and inhibit dirt and stains from being absorbed and make cleaning easier the next time.

Dry leather needs rehydrating with water and oils and waxes should not be used as the natural oils do not dry out of leather. Wiping over with a damp cloth regularly will help to do this.

It is important to maintain a regular cleaning regime cleaning dirt off the surface regularly and inhibiting the absorption of body oils into the leather with a protector is the best way of doing this.

The alternative is a brand new product on the market called Lazy Leather. This is the latest technology in cleaning and combines an effective cleaner with a protector. It is quick and easy to use and should be used as a maintenance product once your suite has been cleaned or from new if you have just bought it.

Using household products may appear to work but will in the long run deteriorate the leather finish quicker and it may tehn be impossible to restore. May seem cheaper to use products from the supermarket but if they do not work or damage the leather then it is a short sighted saving.
Please DO NOT use hairspray on the ink marks, although it sometimes works it can cause more damage which is then unfixable.

You can use an LTT ink stick but not if it is an aniline (absorbent) leather.

HI I WAS WATCHING HOW CLEAN IS YOUR HOUSE THE OTHER DAY AND AGIE GOT BIRO ON HER HANDBAG AND THE OTHER ONE (CAN'T REMEMBER HER NAME) GOT OUT HER HAIRSPRAY AND SPRAYED IT ON THE BIRO MARKS AND RUBBED IT WITH A CLOTH AND IT WAS GONE BRILLIANT
HOPE THIS HELPS X

try baby wipes, use on a small unseen section first tho
or carefully use a damp soft cloth and then use a clear leather polish after

use leather wipes

Try saddle soap,it works wonders on most leather things.
Have a look in an equestrian shop in your area.

I used a cleaner and polish made for leather shoes and it worked well.
