How to Use Leather Honey Suede Cleaner on Watch Straps
Step 1: Remove the Strap from the Watch
Before cleaning, detach the leather strap from your watch to avoid accidentally damaging the case or movement.
Step 2: Brush Away Surface Dirt
Use a soft, lint-free cloth or a suede brush to gently remove loose dirt or debris. This preps the leather for a deeper clean.
Step 3: Apply the Cleaner
Shake the bottle and dispense a small amount of the foaming cleaner onto a clean, lint-free cloth. Gently work the cleaner into the strap using circular motions, paying extra attention to stained or soiled areas.
Step 4: Remove Excess Cleaner
Wipe away any excess product with a damp cloth to ensure no residue is left behind.
Step 5: Allow the Strap to Dry
Let the strap air dry completely before reattaching it to your watch. Avoid using heat or direct sunlight, as these can dry out the leather.
Tips for Maintaining Leather Watch Straps
-
Clean Regularly
For straps worn daily, clean them once a month to remove sweat and dirt buildup. -
Use Leather Conditioners
After cleaning, consider using a leather conditioner like Leather Honey’s conditioner to keep the strap soft, supple, and protected against cracks. -
Avoid Excess Water
Leather is sensitive to moisture, so avoid submerging your strap in water. If it gets wet, dry it gently with a soft cloth and let it air dry naturally. -
Store Properly
When not in use, store your watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading or warping of the leather strap.
