Deluxe Pigmented/Sealed/Finished Leather
-HAND Clean
We perform cleans on SEALED/Finished/Pigmented Leather furniture (90% of household leather furniture).
PIGMENTED - known as Sealed or Protected leather has been treated, spray painted & sealed to protect the leather hide. It has a thick layer of protective coating applied which slows down staining from spills, but grain patterns still show through. Coffee & wet spills will not absorb easily. If you want a THOROUGH clean & protection of your valuable PIGMENTED/Sealed leather furnishings then our process is:
Inspection - Pre Inspect your leather for spots/stains, rips, fraying etc.
Procedure - Remove any loose cushions & Dry Vacuum &/or soft polish any fabric areas/linings & any hard to get at places (between seats, edges etc).
Treatment - HAND Shampoo
1. Apply leather solution in a circular motion to gently agitate heavily soiled areas
2. Agitate with a soft bristled brush or microfibre cloth or pad
3. Leave for 5 minutes then wipe off with DRY towel, if needed.
NB: Heavily Soiled or Pale lounges, the above steps WILL need to be performed several times, to obtain an optimum result. Once we are happy with the result we will then apply:
Condition
Apply Conditioner in small even circular strokes, until all areas have been coated & buff with towel.
WHITE or Pale colours - You may require Protection?
Apply Protector/conditioner in small even circular strokes, until all areas have been coated & buff with towel.
If any additional specialty treatment needs to be performed like STAIN treatment/attempted removal of stains like coffee, blue or other coloured jean/clothes dye, ink or fake tan solution etc, additional costs will be discussed.
Cleaning of PIGMENTED Leather lounge suites are very labour intensive & PALE colours show more soil. We guarantee to TRY our BEST. We cannot guarantee stain removal as SOME Pale or Cream leather lounge chairs MAY be permanently stained & may have an extremely heavy build up of soil.
LEATHER lounge suites -Deluxe HAND cleaning of PIGMENTED/Sealed - Per SEATING position
Mid to Dark Lounge Chairs - Clean + Condition. FROM $55
Pale or White Lounge Chairs - Clean + Condition or Protection $66-$88
Leather Dining chairs FROM $22
We CANNOT clean : Aniline, Semi Aniline, Nubuck or Suede as they WILL permanently stain as they absorb eg body sweat, spills, etc IMMEDIATELY!
1. Aniline - All REAL leather start as Aniline Leather, which is the highest quality leather. The PREMIUM top side of the animal hide is used. It is treated then submerged into dye to change its colour, but grain patterns show through. Absorbs Water, stains & spills immediately.
2. SEMI Aniline - as above, but has a thin layer of protective coating applied to slow down staining.
3. Nubuck - Suede look - buffed & Brushed to create a soft nap. Absorbs Water, stains & spills immediately.
Keep - Specialty Leather Repairs like stain treatment, repairing rips, tears - We are in the process of learning how to perform minor repairs like cuts or splits. We have learnt how to insert a backing sheet, fill the gap then recolour the damaged area with colour touch ups. However, we are still learning how to mix up colours more precisely. The result will never be perfect, but it will extend the life of your lounge suite. Peeling leather is a result of various reasons: through manufacture faults, bad aggressive cleaning methods, hair grease, etc.
Blood spills
Blood Removal from carpet is a Health Issue & dangerous to the cleaner therefore requires Specialty treatment
Surface treatment using SUB surface tool- 'Water Claw, - On LARGER spills or spills that have had time to SOAK into the carpet - over 24 hours:
Pre inspect, contain & extract as much of blood spill as possible, using cold water.
Flood the blood spill affected area with a diluted Pre Spray Treatment to ensure that the carpet backing & underlay is treated (this is where the heaviest concentration of blood will be)
Let this dwell for 10 minutes
We will then EXTRACT the mix using a specialised 'WATER CLAW'
Flood the affected area with a specialised Odour Neutraliser that will counteract & neutralise organic materials so we allow it to dwell for 5 minutes
We will then apply shampoo & steam clean the area & extract the Neutraliser using the 'WATER CLAW'
Finally we treat area with a Decontaminate/Deodoriser. It will take 24-48 hours to thoroughly dry out the carpet, backing & underlay.
NB: We CANNOT guarantee full removal of blood because it has probably SOAKED through the underlay & carpet backing also, so when we EXTRACT blood UP through the carpet, as the carpet dries, sometimes residue from underneath the carpet backing or underlay WILL wick up again. Therefore, depending on the amount of blood that has soaked through, a second visit/treatment MAY or may not be necessary? Second visit WILL incur additional charges*.
