How to Clean Faux Leather Patent

How to Clean Patent Fabric on Your Rolling Laptop Bag

Patent fabric adds a sleek, polished look to any bag, making it a stylish choice for professionals and travelers alike. However, its glossy surface can be prone to fingerprints, smudges, and dirt over time. To keep your patent rolling laptop bag looking pristine, follow these simple yet effective cleaning steps. 

PLEASE ONLY USE THIS TECHNIQUE ON FAUX LEATHER PATENT. Rubbing alcohol can cause discoloration, drying, or damage to non-patent surfaces, so please apply it carefully only on the patent faux leather surfaces.

What You’ll Need:

• A soft, lint-free towel or microfiber cloth

• Rubbing alcohol (isopropyl alcohol)

• Water (optional for dilution)

Step-by-Step Cleaning Guide:

1. Prepare Your Cleaning Solution:

   • Pour a small amount of rubbing alcohol onto a soft towel or microfiber cloth. If you prefer a gentler approach, you can dilute the alcohol with an equal part of water.

2. Gently Wipe the Surface:

   • Lightly press the towel onto the patent surface and begin wiping in a circular motion. Avoid excessive scrubbing, as too much pressure can dull the shine.

3. Focus on Stubborn Marks:

   • For scuffs or deep-set stains, apply a bit more rubbing alcohol to the cloth and gently rub the affected area. The alcohol helps break down dirt and oil without damaging the glossy finish.

4. Buff for a Lasting Shine:

   • Once clean, use a dry section of the towel to buff the surface and restore its natural shine.

5. Store Properly to Prevent Future Smudges:

   • Keep your patent rolling laptop bag in a dust bag or store it in a clean, dry space to minimize exposure to dust and dirt.

Additional Tips for Maintaining Patent Fabric:

• Avoid using harsh chemicals, acetone, or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the finish.

• Regularly wipe your bag down with a dry microfiber cloth to maintain its glossy look between deep cleans.

By following these simple steps, you can keep your patent rolling laptop bag looking as stunning as the day you got it. A little care goes a long way in maintaining the beauty and durability of your bag, ensuring it stays a chic and functional companion for all your work and travel needs!
