Frequently asked questions

How do I clean a leather sofa made of smooth leather?

Tapir’s mild leather and saddle soap is ideal for cleaning leather sofas and armchairs thoroughly and gently. This special soap was developed to deep clean smooth leather without drying it out. Thanks to its slightly moisturizing properties, it reliably removes dirt and ensures that the leather retains its natural suppleness.

A particular advantage of Tapir leather and saddle soap is the wax content. This nourishes the leather during cleaning and leaves a fine protective layer that protects the material from external influences. This gives the leather not only a clean, but also a well-groomed appearance.

Despite the nourishing properties of the soap, additional treatment is recommended after cleaning. Leather is a natural material that requires additional care with regular use and cleaning in order to remain flexible and resistant in the long term. Products such as leather grease or leather oil are ideal for this purpose. Especially for large surfaces, such as those commonly found on sofas or armchairs, aftercare ensures that the leather is optimally nourished and protected from drying out.

The application is very simple: First clean the leather with a Tapir soaking sponge or a cotton cloth and Tapir leather soap. Then allow the surface to dry thoroughly before applying a thin layer of leather grease or leather oil. Work the care product in evenly with a soft cloth to achieve an even result.

With a combination of cleaning and care, you can ensure that your leather sofa or armchair remains clean, supple and a real eye-catcher for many years to come. Tapir leather and saddle soap is an indispensable aid for the sustainable care of your leather furniture.
