What You Will Need

- Mild laundry detergent or a detergent specifically designed for leather
Instructions
- Using a clean cloth or sponge, gently dab at urine stain until no more moisture can be absorbed.
- Mix a 50/50 solution of cold water and white vinegar in a spray bottle.
- Spray the solution onto the stain and allow it to sit for 10 minutes.
- Dab the stain lightly with a white absorbent cloth and let it dry for 20 minutes.
- If the stain persists, use a soft-bristle brush to scrub the area gently.
- Mix a small amount of mild laundry detergent or a leather-specific detergent into warm water.
- Dip a clean cloth into the solution and apply it to the stain in a circular motion.
- Rinse the area with cold water and dab it lightly with a dry cloth.
- Allow the area to air-dry completely before wearing or using the item again.
Precautions
- Do not use hot water, as this can cause the leather to shrink or wrinkle.
- Do not use a brush with metal bristles. These could damage the leather.
- Do not use any abrasive cleaners or any kind of chemical cleaners.
- If the item is heavily soiled, take it to a professional cleaner.
