Maintenance

Leather Care Guide

At HagorArts, we craft our leather products with the utmost care and precision to ensure they last a lifetime. Proper maintenance of natural leather helps preserve its beauty and durability. Follow these tips to keep your HagorArts creations in pristine condition:

1. Cleaning

  • Use a soft, dry cloth to gently remove dust and dirt from the surface.
  • For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Avoid soaking the leather.
  • Do not use harsh chemicals, alcohol-based cleaners, or abrasive materials.

    2. Conditioning

    • Apply a high-quality leather conditioner every 6-12 months to keep the leather soft and supple.
    • Test the conditioner on a small, hidden area first to ensure it doesn’t discolor the leather.

      3. Storage

      • Store your leather product in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
      • Avoid folding or crushing leather items to prevent creases or permanent damage.
      • Use a dust bag or cover to protect the product from dirt and moisture.

        4. Water and Moisture Protection

        • Avoid prolonged exposure to water or moisture. If your product gets wet, blot it gently with a clean cloth and let it air dry naturally.
        • Consider using a leather water-repellent spray for added protection.

          5. Handling Stains

          • For oil-based stains, sprinkle talcum powder or cornstarch over the area and let it sit for a few hours to absorb the oil. Gently brush off.
          • Consult a professional leather cleaner for tough stains that you cannot remove.

            6. Avoiding Scratches

            • Keep sharp objects away to prevent accidental scratches.
            • If minor scratches occur, gently rub the area with your fingers to redistribute natural oils and diminish their appearance.

              7. Regular Use

              • Using your leather product regularly helps maintain its flexibility and patina.

              By following these tips, you can enjoy the timeless elegance and durability of your handcrafted leather products for years to come. If you have specific questions or need assistance, please don’t hesitate to contact us!
