STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE TO CLEAN URINE OFF A LEATHER
COUCH
Well, if you have an expensive and fancy leather
couch at your home and you suddenly see the urine
on it, the first thought on your mind is how to
clean pee from the leather couch right? No need
to panic, just follow these simple steps and
solve the problem in just a few minutes.
STEP 1 BLOT THE URINE
First and foremost when you see the urine on the
leather the first step is to blot the affected
area as soon as possible. You need to use a
clean, dry paper towel or cloth to absorb as much
urine as you can. The notable thing is that here
avoid rubbing as this can spread the urine and
push it deeper into the leather.

STEP 2 USE A LEATHER CLEANER
Secondly, use a leather cleaner and clean
wherever there is urine. The best leather couch
cleaner is one specifically designed for leather.
Avoid using household cleaners as they can damage
the leather. Follow the instructions that can
help you get the better result

• Spray or apply the cleaner onto a soft cloth, not
  directly onto the leather.
• Wipe the affected area gently in a circular
  motion.
• Use a clean, damp cloth to remove any residue
  from the leather cleaner.

STEP 3 TREAT THE ODOUR
To get rid of the pee smell, youll need to
neutralize the odor. There are several methods
you can use

• Mix equal parts of white vinegar and water.
  Dampen a cloth with the solution and gently wipe
  the affected area. Vinegar is excellent for
  neutralizing odors, but be sure to test it on a
  small, hidden area of the couch first to make
  sure it doesnt damage the leather.
• Sprinkle baking soda over the affected area and
  let it be there for a few hours, or overnight if
  possible. Baking soda absorbs odors effectively.
  Vacuum the area thoroughly to remove the baking
  soda.

STEP 4 CONDITION THE LEATHER

• After cleaning and purifying, its important to
  condition the leather to keep it soft. Leather
  can dry out and crack if not properly cared for.
• Use a leather conditioner suitable for your type
  of leather. Apply it to a soft cloth and rub it
  into the leather in circular motions.
• After the conditioner has been absorbed, use a
  clean cloth to buff the leather to a shine.

HOW TO GET PEE SMELL OUT OF CLOTHES
If your child or pet does pee on your clothes,
you need to clean it as soon as possible, because
it can leave a bad smell on your clothes. Here
are some simple tips on how to get the pee smell
out of clothes
1. RINSE THE STAINED AREA
When you know that your clothes smell of pee,
clean that cloth with cold water as soon as
possible. It helps to reduce the odor and any
stains.
2. PRE-TREAT THE STAIN
Pre-treat the stained area with an enzyme-based
stain remover. Enzyme cleaners are effective at
breaking down the proteins in urine, which helps
to remove both the stain and the odor.

• Follow the instructions on the products label.
  Typically, youll apply the cleaner to the
  stained area and let it sit for a specified
  amount of time.
• Gently rub the stained area to work the cleaner
  into the fabric.

3. WASH THE CLOTHES
Wash the clothes in the washing machine using the
hottest water safe for the fabric. Add a cup of
white vinegar to the wash cycle to help
neutralize odors.

• Use a high-quality laundry detergent to ensure
  the clothes get thoroughly cleaned.
• Fabric softeners can mask odors rather than
  remove them, so it's best to avoid them in this
  wash.

4. CHECK FOR ODOURS BEFORE DRYING
After washing, check the clothes for any
remaining urine odor before drying. If the smell
persists, repeat the washing process. Drying
clothes with lingering urine odor can make the
smell more difficult to remove. Lastly, If you
find that home cleaning methods aren't
sufficient, consider seeking professional
cleaning services. The Cobuilders offer
specialized cleaning services that can handle
tough stains and odors, ensuring your leather
couch and clothes are thoroughly cleaned and
fresh as earlier.
