How do I clean and care for aniline leather?

We recommend the Musterring NATURAL LEATHER CARE KIT for cleaning and caring for aniline leather or refined aniline leather . Treat the leather with the aniline cream immediately on delivery. After that, clean and treat the leather with the NATURAL LEATHER CARE KIT every three months. For everyday cleaning, it suffices to occasionally dust the leather with a feather duster or a dry dust cloth. Absorb fresh stains with a terry cloth or household cloth by squeezing it between your fingers. Do not rub! Residual stains can be further cleaned with a slightly damp terry cloth. To avoid water marks, do not wet the cloth too much and do not rub too vigorously. Dry the darkened, wetted area with a hairdryer on the cold setting, to further prevent water marks. Brighten any remaining dark patches with a leather polishing pad and treat with aniline cream. Always test cleaning attempts in an inconspicuous area first.

Note: Our aniline leathers also include pure aniline leather. This leather has no pigmented coating or sealing; all the pores are open. The surface is usually matt and often slightly polished. To avoid changing the matt shine and characteristically soft touch with cleaning products, we recommend using the Musterring SUEDE LEATHER CARE KIT.
