Cleaning sheepskin

Fmarguerita

The results from washing my sheepskin coat are a success.
Put it in the washer on 20 degree wash for 45 mins.
Dried it in the dryer and it's as good as new.
Thankyou for the advice

Ok, new on this site and I been doing some reading and researching here. But I need some serious advice or help.
My sister gave me a old type ww2 bomber jacket, leather, sheep skin/fur , and the biggest problem baby blue fur !
What the heck is that?
Who came out with the idea of coloring the fur baby blue?
She knew that blue is my favorite color and the jacket is a favorite of mine and me just getting retired from the military service she thought it was a great gift but I look at it and. .........

I need help to either remove the blue color or recolor the fur.
Is there a way to do it?
Please let me know.
Thanks

Brother G

Great to hear about your success with washing the sheepskin coat FMarguerita; thank you for posting the details. Please can I ask if you used any detergent and if so what? Or did you just run the wash without?
Thanks in advance.

Hi guys,

My lovely sheepskin coat has been hanging in my wardrobe for a few weeks and when I took it out to wear it this weekend I noticed there two small dark, hard patches on the suede. One is a very small dot, the other is about the size of a 5p coin and the suede is stiff. I don't understand how they got there - maybe it could be a damp problem? Any ideas as to how this happened and what I can do to fix it before I contact a specialist cleaner? They are right on the front of the coat, I am so upset! I moved it from the hallway to the wardrobe specifically so that it wouldn't get damaged.. Oh and I have tried cleaning it with a suede spray cleaner and it had no effect. Please help!
