Fed up of trying to keep a cream leather suite clean, tried everything from leather cleaning fluids to Grandma Nellies method, nothing works. So is there anywhere we could have our suite dyed a darker colour.



Thank You TT

it really does depend on how the leather has been " treated " if it is protected grain. no amount of dye will touch it.

I use Dove shower gel with conditioner to wash my suite and it always comes up a treat. (not that I do it very often) The conditioner keeps the leather soft and moisturised.

Soap flakes bring it up very clean, but have not seen any here in North Cyprus, brought them from the uk (Sainsburys)
