How to clean the leatherette?

1. Cleaning the imitation leather takes only a few minutes. You will not need any specific skills. Having the right products and accessories is enough.
2. First, use a soft bristle brush (small or large, depending on the surface to be cleaned) and a leather or imitation soap. Apply this product using circular movements, without pressing too hard. The aim is to dust, degrease and remove all impurities present on the material.
3. Then gently dry the shampoo with a microfibre cloth.
4. To perfect the cleaning of the imitation leather, you can also apply a waterproofing agent. This protects your support, object, furniture or accessory, by preventing water from entering. It is ideal for clothing or leather goods.
5. Washing imitation leather is quite simple. In addition to the accessories listed above, use a soft, dry cloth. To start, clean the imitation leather with a special soap, using circular movements and a brush. This gesture avoids traces.
6. Then wipe the soap with the dry cloth. If you have never waterproofed your imitation leather before, then take advantage of this interview to do so. Especially if the object is often used in wet weather or in case of rain (shoes, bags, briefcases, gloves...).

To do this, use a leather waterproofing agent that also works very well on imitation leather.
