White furniture made of leatherette looks really impressive. However, only if it is free of various stains.

Therefore, if you are the lucky owner of a sofa with eco-leather upholstery, do not forget to wash it from time to time.

This should be done with caution, without excessive wetting. Washing is carried out using a soft sponge and two dry cotton or microfiber cloths.

Before starting the “procedure”, you need to remove the dust, after which you can proceed to the next steps.

Apply a small amount of soapy water or foam to the dirty surface of the furniture with a sponge and gently rub the areas with the sponge to remove stains.

Remove the cleaning solution with a damp cloth.

Wipe the surface with a dry cloth or soft tissue to remove any remaining moisture and give the leatherette a fresh look.

Apply a silicone-based protective agent to the surface of the sofa. Silicone makes the surface softer, shinier and creates a protective layer that prevents new stains from appearing.

All that remains is to remove any excess protective agent using paper towels or napkins, and you can use the sofa again – until the next cleaning.
