Title: SHEEPSKIN
Post by: Eureka Ventures on March 31, 2007, 02:26:03 am

I've been asked to clean a couple of pieces of sheepskin; one has a cotton backing and the other a suede. They are going to be used as a wrap for a new-born baby.

Any help would be appreciated.

Your on a bit of a hiding to nothing. Baby aside, the suede would usually require a solvent based cleaning chemical but bearing in mind it's for a baby I would avoid coz any that I have used smell very solvent like after clean.

Speak to a good local dry cleaners ie. get someone else to do it and make a few quid being a collection & delivery service.

The customer got cleaning instructions from John Lewis'. Apparently it can be machine-washed without problems

Thanks all
