Product Information
Full details
Profoam Leather Cleaner is an ideal solution for homeowners and automotive enthusiasts looking to restore and maintain leather goods ranging from furniture and jackets to car upholstery. Its core benefit lies in a pH-balanced, foaming formula that lifts deep-seated dirt while simultaneously conditioning the material to prevent cracking and aging. However, users should be aware that while it is safe for most surfaces, it is essential to perform a spot test on an inconspicuous area first, especially on porous or aniline leathers, to ensure compatibility.

FAQs
Can I use this on suede or nubuck?
No, this product is designed for smooth, finished leather. It will damage the texture of suede and nubuck.
How often should I clean my leather goods?
Depending on usage, a light cleaning every 3 to 6 months is usually sufficient to maintain the leather's health and appearance.
Is it safe for white or light-colored leather?
Yes, because the formula is pH-balanced and non-pigmented, it is safe for light-colored leathers, provided you always perform a spot test first.
Do I need to apply a separate conditioner after using this?
The product includes conditioning agents designed to protect the leather, so a separate conditioner is usually not required for routine maintenance.
Can this be used on faux leather or vinyl?
Yes, the product is effective on synthetic, bonded, and faux leather surfaces.
What should I do if the leather gets wet during cleaning?
Simply blot the area with a dry, absorbent towel. Never use a hairdryer or direct heat to dry it, as this will dehydrate the leather.
Troubleshooting
Leather looks streaky after drying
You may have used too much product. Wipe the surface again with a clean, damp cloth and buff dry with a soft microfiber towel.
Surface feels sticky
This is typically caused by residue build-up. Wipe the leather thoroughly with a slightly damp cloth to remove excess foam and allow it to dry completely.
Cleaner is not removing a specific stain
Allow the foam to dwell for 30 seconds before gently working it in with a soft-bristle brush, then wipe away. Do not scrub excessively as this can damage the leather finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting, ensure the leather surface is free of loose dust or debris using a soft dry cloth. Shake the Profoam container well before use to activate the foaming agents. Apply the foam directly onto a clean microfiber cloth rather than spraying it straight onto the leather to ensure even distribution. Always test on a small, hidden area of the item—such as the inner seam of a jacket or the back of a sofa—to verify colorfastness. After application, allow the leather to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, like radiators or intense sunlight, which can cause the leather to stiffen. Use once every few months or whenever the leather begins to appear dull to maintain its protective barrier.
