Good Morning

Yesterday, we received an email from a customer who had been advised by someone to use mink oil to clean excess gold foil on our Sokoto. This resulted in the leather being ruined with a very dark oil stain.

We suggested trying a polar organic solvent to try to clean – butane commonly found in lighter fluid in very small quantity application and blotting oil out with a white paper towel or clean white cloth.

Below are the before and after pictures. This was successful. We all felt relief. We hope that this information is helpful to you

Warmest Regards
