How to Clean Apple Leather Case

leather iphone case

Wondering about the process for ‘how to clean Apple leather case'?

The key to cleaning your phone case is using a soft, dry microfiber cloth and wiping the leather surface to carefully remove dirt and stains.

For a deeper clean, apply a small amount of our leather cleaner from The Leather Care Kit to a dry microfiber cloth and gently rub it onto the case. Then let it air-dry for several hours to prevent the fabric from becoming brittle and cracking.

In this article, we at Andar will dive into the essential steps for caring for your leather iPhone case, from pre-conditioning to protecting it from sun damage.

Let's get started on maintaining your case's elegance and durability!

How to Care for Your Leather iPhone Case

Our findings show that proper care is crucial for learning how to preserve a leather iPhone case's overall beauty and longevity.

Pre-Condition It

Based on our first-hand experience, we recommend testing a leather conditioning product on a small, inconspicuous area of your Apple phone case first so it doesn't ruin the leather.

From there, you can apply our leather conditioner from The Leather Care Kit to pre-condition your case to keep it soft and supple.

Let the conditioner soak in for a few hours or overnight before using the phone case to protect the leather and enhance its innate aesthetic.

With a sleek leather iPhone case like The Aspen, we treat it with The Leather Cream before delivering it to our customers, ensuring it stays in pristine condition for longer.

Keep It Clean

Regular cleaning with our specialized Andar leather cleaner is key to maintaining a versatile leather Apple case like The Fitz.

Invest in cleaning your case every two weeks to keep it looking fresh. Consistently wipe the case with a dry microfiber cloth to remove dust and dirt.

For tougher stains, use The Leather Cream and lightly rub the affected area in circular motions. Avoid soaking The Fitz in water as it can cause damage and discoloration.

Finally, allow the case to air-dry naturally for up to 8 hours overnight after cleaning and conditioning to preserve its premium quality.

This method also works when learning how to clean a leather backpack and how to clean a leather watch band, as well.

Moisturize It

Use our specialized Andar leather conditioner again to keep the case from drying out.

Apply it evenly with a clean and dry microfiber cloth, massaging the solution gradually in circles to cover all areas. Let the conditioner absorb into the leather for a few hours before wiping off any excess.

We recommend conditioning your leather Apple phone case every few months to keep it in top condition. This regular moisturizing routine will help conserve the leather's innate oils and stop it from becoming brittle.

Treat Any Scratches

Minor scratches can often be buffed out with a soft microfiber cloth. For deeper scratches, use a leather repair kit or The Leather Cream from us at Andar, which works on various leather colors and finishes.

Apply our cream to the scratch and gently rub it in, massaging it in circles. After treating scratches, condition the leather from our The Leather Care Kit to restore its natural oils and finish.

Through our practical knowledge, we've found that this method can significantly reduce the appearance of scratches and keep your phone cover looking pristine.

Don't Leave It In The Sun

As per our expertise, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause the leather to fade and dry out.

That's why you should store your leather Apple case in a cool, dry place when not in use to prevent warping from heat and humidity.

Avoid leaving the case in hot environments too, such as inside a car on a sunny day. Use a leather protector spray to add an extra layer of defense against UV rays.

These precautions will help maintain the color and texture of your leather case for years to come.
