Preparation
- Gather the necessary materials:
- Leather cleaner
- Leather conditioner
- Clean cloths
- Dry sponge
- Isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol)
- Make sure your leather item is completely dry before beginning to clean. If it is wet, allow it to dry completely.
- Test all of your products on an inconspicuous area of the leather item before starting.
Cleaning Process
- Remove as much of nail polish stain as possible with a dry sponge or cloth. It's important to use a dry cloth or sponge to avoid making the stain spread further.
- Apply a small amount of isopropyl alcohol to a clean cloth and dab at the stain until it has lifted off the leather. Do not rub too hard as this can damage the material.
- Once the stain is removed, use a leather cleaner to restore the natural look of the leather.
- Once the cleaner has been applied and allowed to sit for a few minutes, use a separate cloth to buff out the area and remove any residue.
- Apply a leather conditioner to the area to help it stay soft, supple, and resistant to cracking.
