How to Clean Yellowed White Leather

Baking soda is an extremely versatile cleaning agent that can quickly remove all manner of stains from any surface. Plus, its porous nature allows it to absorb moisture and oils that would otherwise seep into porous materials like leather. To use baking soda effectively for yellow stain removal on leather materials, wet a cloth and sprinkle a small amount over each yellow stain on its surface.

Next, use a clean cloth or sponge to scrub the affected area until all stains have been eliminated and dry the couch thoroughly afterwards.

Baking soda is an affordable household cleaning product that makes a popular alternative to expensive cleaners. Baking soda can be used to remove stains from leather shoes and furniture as well as whiten the surface.

It is best not to apply toothpaste directly onto leather; rather use a soft rag instead to apply and rub it over its surface surface!

Regular cleaning will help protect white leather from turning yellow over time. Use a damp lint-free cloth or rag to wipe down the surface with damp water; this will stop it becoming stained while also helping prevent soaps and detergents from building up, which could otherwise harm its durability.

Shoe cleaner

After applying cleaner, allow time for its effects to work before rinsing off leather with clean cloth before patting it dry with another clean cloth and patting dry again for final touch ups.
