Getting dirt/stain of leather wallet?
Hey! I recently purchased a leather wallet and a few days later I noticed that there is dirt/stain on my wallet. I am not sure how it happened. I tried washing it away with soap but it din't work. It looks like its blend into the material. Is there anyway that I can remove it? Thank you!

Be very careful what you use.
The wallet looks as though it may only have a light surface coating in which case the stain may be difficult to remove. Use an Aniline Leather Cleaner and if this does not work find a leather technician who will be able to help. The more you scrub at this the more damage you will do.
DO NOT use baby oil on this. If it is an absorbent style leather (Aniline or Micropigment) baby oil will make it go dark and will be impossible to remove.
Hope this helps

I would use leather cleaner and a soft cloth
Also try an old toothbrush using circular motions
Then you need to re condition it as you have used soap
just a small amount of baby oil will do this
