  • Eeeeeeeek!

    Can't suggest much now to be honest - most products I know about are used to clean and/or protect leather. Are you covered under your household insurance?

    Hope someone else can offer better advice.

    what is the best thing to clean a leather suite with then? I have just got one and wanted to know which leather cleaner set is the best to buy.

    I want one with a cleaner, and a feed to keep the leather supple.

    Any ideas? ;D
  • I get my leather cleaning stuff from http://www.lakelandlimited.com

    I use the Urad product:-
    "Urad Shoe & Leather Cleaner
    Already renowned in the horse world and rapidly gaining a big reputation as a shoe cleaner, but that is only part of the story. Urad Leather Cleaner is much, much more than a shoe polish. It cleans, feeds and nourishes all leathers, reviving the colour and leaving a mirror shine that needs no buffing, which lasts and lasts. Good news for boots and shoes and also for those with leather sofas, jackets, belts and of course, for your pony's tack.
    Quantity 4780 200g. £ 7.95 "


    They also have various other products - just do a seach for leather as a keyword
