⚠️ Precautions

Safety is always #1 — please do not skip over this step
Given the nature of this task, here are some precautions to be mindful of:

1. When working with any cleaning solution, especially specialized leather cleaners and conditioners, you should use gloves to protect your skin from potential irritation. Eye protection can also be used if you’re prone to eye discomfort in the presence of such solutions.

2. Always perform a spot test with any new product on an inconspicuous area of the leather first. This will ensure that the product does not cause discoloration or damage to the leather.

3. Do not overly soak the leather with the cleaning solution or water – leather is not meant to endure being excessively wet. Over-saturation can lead to permanent damage.

4. Avoid using heat to dry the leather, like hairdryers. Rapid or uneven drying can cause the leather to harden or crack.

Please remember to follow the instructions on your leather cleaner and conditioner product labels and only use products that are safe for your type of leather.

Pre-Treatment

Why it’s so important

Pretreatment is crucial for large, heavy pet urine stains on leather, especially for stains older than three days, as it prepares the stain for the actual removal process. The initial blotting helps absorb any residual urine and prevents the stain from setting further into the leather. The vinegar-water solution is a key step for this stain type, as the acidic properties of vinegar help neutralize the strong odors of pet urine and break down the urine components, making the stain easier to remove in the subsequent steps. By doing this, we also reduce the potential for long-term damage or discoloration to the leather.

Pre-Treatment Instructions

Understood. Thank you for providing the detailed information about the stain. Before we proceed with the stain removal steps, let’s start with the pretreatment process for removing heavy, large pet urine stains from leather.

Pretreatment Instructions:
1. Blot the stained area gently with a clean, absorbent cloth or paper towel to remove any excess urine. (2-3 minutes)
2. Mix a solution of equal parts water and white vinegar. (1-2 minutes)
3. Dampen a clean cloth with the vinegar solution. (1 minute)
4. Blot the stained area with the damp cloth, gently applying pressure to transfer the solution onto the stain. Avoid rubbing, as it may spread the stain. (2-3 minutes)
5. Allow the vinegar solution to sit on the stain for about 10 minutes to help neutralize the odor and break down the urine. (10 minutes)

These pretreatment instructions will help prepare the stain for the next steps in the removal process. Once you have completed the pretreatment, we can proceed with the stain removal steps.

How To Remove This Pet urine Stain

⚠️ Make sure Pre-Treatment Instructions have been completed before trying to remove this type of Pet urine stain
———
1. After the pretreatment, gently wipe off the vinegar solution with a clean, damp cloth without rubbing the stain. (2-3 minutes)

2. Dry the area using a soft towel, patting gently. Do not scrub as it may damage the leather surface. (2-3 minutes)

3. Apply a specialized leather cleaner to a clean cloth and gently wipe over the stained area. Follow the product’s instructions for best results. (3-5 minutes)

4. Allow the cleaner to sit and penetrate the stain as per the instructions on the cleaner bottle. (Time varies, usually 10-15 minutes)

5. Wipe off the cleaner gently using a clean, damp cloth. Ensure the cleaner is completely removed from the leather surface. (3-5 minutes)

6. Use a dry cloth to pat dry the area, avoiding rubbing or scrubbing. (2-3 minutes)

7. Apply a leather conditioner to a clean cloth and apply to the cleaned area to restore moisture and keep the leather supple. Follow the product’s instructions for best results. (5-10 minutes)

8. Allow the conditioner to sit as per the product’s instructions, giving it time to soak into the leather. (Time varies, usually around 15-20 minutes)

9. Wipe off any excess conditioner using a clean cloth, and allow the leather to dry completely. (5-10 minutes)

10. Repeat the cleaning steps if needed in case the stain is not completely removed after the first try. Please note, for heavy stains, repeat the process after 24 hours to avoid over saturating the leather. (Time varies)

Remember to always do a spot test of both the leather cleaner and conditioner on an inconspicuous area first to ensure they do not discolor or damage the leather.

Post-Treatment Care + Instructions

Special care instructions for after the Pet urine stain has been removed
———
1. After you have finished the stain removal process and the leather is dry, assess the results. If the stain or odor persists, repeat the stain removal instructions after 24 hours. (2-3 minutes)

2. If stain is gone, use a soft clean cloth for a final light buffing of the cleaned area to restore the leather’s natural gleam. (3-5 minutes)

3. Continue to use a leather conditioner regularly as described in stain removal steps. This helps to protect the leather, maintain its natural look, and prevent future stains. (5-10 minutes every 1-2 weeks)

4. To prevent pet urine stains in the future, consider using protective covers on the leather or training your pet to avoid the leather furniture. Professional cleaning services may also be considered regularily for maintenance and to increase longevity of the leather. (Ongoing)

Remember, always do a spot test of all cleaning treatments and conditioners on an inconspicuous area first. Perform these post-treatment instructions as needed based on the state of the stain after the initial treatment. Since intensive cleaning can affect the leather’s original color and texture, use the cleaning steps and post-treatment only when needed.

Important Notes

Extra thoughts I had, just in case ♥️
———
Below are some additional considerations when addressing large, heavy pet urine stains on leather:

1. Should traditional cleaning methods prove unsuccessful, you may need to consider professional cleaning. These services have deeper cleaning solutions that might be required, especially for heavy stains.

2. Leather color can sometimes change slightly after being treated with cleaning products, even if the product was specifically designed for leather. Do your best to blend the cleaned area with the rest of your furniture to make any color change less noticeable.

3. If your leather furniture suffers frequent pet urine stains, you might want to invest in a high-quality pet repellant spray or protective covers to safeguard against future incidents.

Ensuring you have the appropriate cleaning and conditioning products on hand and treating urine stains as soon as possible can help keep your leather items looking their best.

Remember to follow product instructions and always test in a small, inconspicuous area first before applying to the entire stain.
