And nothing as distressing as discovering condensation from a glass on a leather couch, rain spots on a leather jacket or white spots left on boots that have tromped through rain or snow. If this has happened to you, don't despair. It's quite possible that with a little coaxing and care, you can reverse the problem yourself, at home and without the need for pro- fessional intervention. If you own leather, you need to also own a good leather cleaner and leather-conditioning product. Think of these must-have products in the same way that you must have some kind of detergent, stain treat- ment and softener for your clothes. Leather must be maintained rou- tinely, in the same way that you launder your clothes. You can find these products online (do a simple search at www.amazon.com, for example), or locally at a shoe repair shop or other store that carries leather goods. Leather should be cleaned and conditioned regularly. Should you have a problem with water marks, it's always best to start with the easiest and least inva- sive remedy first. Mix warm water and a few drops of mild dish soap (like Dawn) in a bucket. Dip a new, clean sponge into the bucket, and wring it out thoroughly. Wipe the water spot gently with the sponge. Avoid harsh rubbing, or you may damage the leather. If you are dealing with mild water spots that are fairly recent, this should do the trick. Of course, you will need to allow the leather to dry fully to know for sure. If you still see the spots, try this next remedy: the product's label for proper appli- cation. Apply conditioner to the leather once the stain has been removed. Water has a way, over time, of drying out the natural oil in the leather. Leather conditioner helps to replenish the oil and also creates a barrier against spotting in the future. Mary Hunt Lightly saturate a cot- ton ball with rubbing alcohol and go over the spot with it. Follow with a damp rag, rubbing gently to remove the spot. If you do not have rubbing alcohol, a 50/50 mixture of white vinegar and water is a work- ing alternative. Rub the water spot gently with the vinegar solution until it disappears. If neither of the foregoing is suc- cessful in getting rid of the prob- lem, attempt to remove the water spots with a commercial leather cleaner. Follow the instructions on Everyday Cheapskate If you own leather prod- ucts, you know that they are not cheap. Leather products deserve your best care to ensure a long and happy life. Unlike some things you own that wear out quickly, good leather becomes only better with age. Think of your leather goods as investments you've made that will return dividends to you again and again over the years if you care for them well.
