It doesn’t matter how many years you’ve had your leather sofa – it may even be that the furniture is brand new, and its upholstery is already “decorated” with scratches and scuffs.

Instead of sending your interior items to a workshop for re-upholstery, try to deal with the problem yourself first.

For restoration you will need olive oil.

Soak a soft cloth in vegetable oil and rub it into the areas where defects were noticed using active circular movements.

Don't skimp on the oil - any remaining oily shine can be removed with paper towels.

By the way, oil will also help if scratches are found on wood products.

For example, to tidy up a wooden countertop worn by time and household members, you need to mix half a cup of olive oil and the same amount of vinegar.

Dip a sponge into the resulting mixture and apply it to the wooden surface.
