How to clean suede leather jacket

There are different ways to clean suede, which can generally be divided into machine washing and hand washing. If the washing machine cannot meet the requirements of the material, it is not recommended to wash it. It is recommended to wash it by hand, which will be better because you can see the changes in the material by hand washing. Don't worry, the treatment method is also determined according to different stains.

Leather clothing cleaning is divided into two types according to different washing methods: machine washing and hand washing;

According to the nature of washing, it is divided into dry cleaning and wet cleaning. Machine washing is mainly done through a leather dry cleaning machine, while hand washing requires the use of washing tools and washing techniques. Machine washing usually uses tetrachloroethylene solvent (there are also petroleum and fluorine solvents) and low-temperature immersion washing. Since machine washing is restricted by the equipment conditions of many laundries, most medium and small laundries in my country currently use manual cleaning. The following is a brief introduction to some practical methods of manual cleaning for reference only.

Main washing tools: short-bristle brush, brown-bristle brush, sponge, plastic cleaning ball, towel, cotton ball, washbasin, washbasin, air spray gun, portrait inflatable model, etc.

Main cleaning materials: gasoline, methanol (alcohol), tetrachloroethylene, hydroxide (ammonia water), detergent, liquid soap, hydrogen peroxide (hydrogen peroxide), sodium chloride (salt), alum, sodium sulfate (nitrate injection), vinegar essence, etc.
