Leather pH balanced products used and procedures are similar to Blue Jean Dye Removal for absorbent smooth leather.
The only difference is the type of brush used.
Suffix of product names indicate their individual pH value that is within the pH value of leather for safe and effective cleaning.
When a product says it’s neutral, it may mean water neutral which is pH 7.
Leather neutral has an average pH value of 4.
The difference is 1000 times in the power of hydrogen ions that are detrimental to the suede chemistry integrity.
Negative effects result form suede cleaning is caused by non leather pH balanced products that resulted in streaks, browning, bleeding, crushed nap or tackiness.
Solvent based products that contain alcohol may cause the aniline dye to bleed with surface ring intensity.
