How to maintain synthetic leather?

Many shoes, handbags and cushions are now made of synthetic leather. This kind of artificial leather material is more durable and moist than traditional leather, and its maintenance is simpler. In addition, it is a better choice for vegetarians or those who oppose the use of animal leather. Although synthetic leather is stronger, it also needs some maintenance. Keeping it clean and dry can avoid cracking or peeling.

Synthetic leather is wiped with wet cloth. This method can be used to clean most artificial leather materials.

Clean dirty synthetic leather products with leather shampoo. Experts recommend using high-quality shoe brushes to remove dirt.

Let the leather dry, but do not use any heat source. Heating or sunshine accelerating drying will result in leather deformation or damage.

Synthetic leather is cured with special products. Products specially designed to maintain the flexibility of synthetic leather materials are available on the market.

Some patented waterproof products can also be used in synthetic leather, which can avoid direct contact with water or dirt.

Keeping synthetic leather clean and properly maintained prevents breakage or hardening. Although artificial leather is more durable than traditional leather, it still needs regular maintenance. Don’t soak synthetic leather directly in water, otherwise it will destroy the material. Don’t wash artificial leather in the washing machine, let alone dry it in the dryer.
