Keeping vegan leather in good condition may seem daunting, but it’s actually quite easy with the correct method. Start by focusing on spot cleaning. Avoid using cleaning products containing ammonia or bleach, as they can harm the protective coating. Instead, choose a mild cleaning agent such as vinegar.

Bleach is toxic
While you can use bleach to clean a number of different materials, it is toxic for vegan leather. It alters the leather’s characteristics and makes it less flexible. The leather can also lose its natural scent if it is bleached. This is something you should not do if you use leather for furniture or clothing.

Ammonia-based products erode the protective coating
Vegan leather can be seriously damaged by ammonia-based products. They can cause damage to the protective coating and leave your car seats with a dry, bare appearance. After cleaning your vehicle’s leather, make sure to rinse it off well. You can also try using a citrus safetouch solution. The citrus-based formula will loosen your seats and make a nice lather. It will also exfoliate the leather. Avoid using ammonia-based products, because they are too harsh for vegan leather.

Vinegar is a good cleaning solution
You should be able to use vinegar as a cleaning solution for your vegan leather clothing. To make it gentler, you can dilute the vinegar with water. The leather can be applied to with a soft cloth.

The best way to clean the material is to follow the care instructions that come with it. By taking proper care, your vegan leather clothing will last for many years.
Rotating your handbags is essential
To keep your vegan leather handbag looking its best, make sure to rotate it every now and then. To do this, you can use baby shampoo or dish detergent to clean it. These are both great options for cleaning up oil-based or greasy stains. Use a clean cloth to apply the detergent or shampoo. It is important to rotate accessories, regardless of whether they are vegan or animal-leather.

Also, avoid placing your handbags in direct sunlight, which can damage them. To keep dust from getting into your treasures, stack them up. You can make your handbags last longer by using a dust bag.
PU is less damaging
PU is water-proof so it is easier to clean than animal leather. You can wipe it clean with a paper towel, or any other light cloth. Stains can be removed by using mild detergent on a clean cloth. Avoid using a too coarse or wet cloth to scrub stains.
PU is not as durable as animal leather and can crack or tear easily. It is also less porous and may stain easily. It is used often for car seats, armchairs and couches.
