Most leather sold today is pigmented leather, typically white or cream . It is the grain layer, which is buffed or sanded to minimise imperfections. An artificial grain is also applied to it to give a uniform look. This leather is fuzzy on one side and smooth on the other. The smooth side is the one where the hair and natural gain used to be. It is then usually pigmented to cover the sanding, similar to painting. The leather offers the sturdiest finish and is often sold at a comparatively lower price than uncorrected leathers. It needs to be cleaned and maintained, to prevent a build up of dirt and to protect from catastrophic spillages and stains, which will permanently stain your suite.
We cover all Melbourne suburbs, all Knox area and all surrounding suburbs to Scoresby.
We recommend a thorough clean once a year followed by treatment with our top quality protector. Maintenance should be a wipe over with a damp cloth, no detergent once a week. Pigmented leather is a bond between the pigment and the leather, which can be undermined by body oils etc and cleaning is importan.

When my grandchildren stayed for a long weekend they covered my leather couches in stains, and because it is unfinished leather I thought that my sofas were done for but you were somehow able to get all of the marks out of the upholstery. A professional service – thank you so much."
