We all know that feeling of having a leather item that we are so protective of and then bam! Water gets on it and you think that’s the end of it. Well lucky for you we have you covered.
Below we will share how to get rid of these water stains in 5 easy steps.
Step 1:
Wipe off the water from the leather as soon as possible. The longer water sits on leather the more damage it will cause.
Gently wipe off the area with a dry soft cloth.
Step 2:
Ensure the cloth is damp, not soaking wet. It should hold enough moisture to clean but not drip.
Use room temperature or slightly warm water, as cold tap water may be less effective.
Avoid adding soap or any other substances—stick to plain water for the best results.
Step 3:
Gently rub the cloth in circular motions, beginning at the center of the stain and working outward.
Avoid applying too much pressure to protect the leather from damage.
The goal is to lightly dampen the stained area while gradually spreading outward to lift the stain.
This technique helps prevent water rings and reduces the stain’s intensity.
Step 4:
Allow the leather to dry naturally at its own pace.
If the area feels too wet, gently rub any excess moisture with a dry, soft cloth.
Avoid rubbing the leather, as this can cause damage.
Never use heat sources, direct sunlight, or machines to speed up the drying process, as this can harm the leather.
Step 5:
Finally when your leather item is all dry add leather conditioner to it. We recommend, Apple Leather Care Conditioner.
Apply it with a cloth using a circular motion.
Conclusion
In the end the best way to remove water stains from your leather is to prevent water getting into your leather before hand. This is why it is recommended to use a waterproof spray. One we recommend is the Apple Brand Garde. Spray 3 coats of that on you leather item and you will be all set!
