Things you need

Cream of tartar

Lemon juice

Soft cloth

Number 2 Pencil with hard eraser

1

Combine one part cream of tartar and one part lemon juice to make a stain removal paste when dealing with darker stains like blood and food. Rub the paste into the stained area and let it sit for 10 minutes before wiping the paste off with a damp rag and moisturising soap. Use a soft cloth to buff the leather dry.

2

Erase the stain away with a hard eraser found on Number 2 pencils. Rub the eraser lightly on any type of leather stain. Even if this doesn't completely remove the stain, it should lighten it quite a bit without adding any wear and tear on your bag.

3

Remove grease stains on leather by rubbing a dry cloth over the stain. This will help soak up the grease. Be sure not to use water on the cloth, as it could cause water stains on your bag.

4

Dip a cotton swab in rubbing alcohol to remove ink stains. Rub the alcohol over the stain, and then dry the bag with a blow dryer set to the lowest setting once the stain is removed.

Try Saddle Soap which is made for leather cleaning. Then treat it with Neatsfoot or Mink Oil so it will be harder to stain in the future.

Its a bag. Relax. Your dad didn't mean to do it. If it is that important to you, you shouldn't have brought it. Leather is very hard to clean thoroughly. Take it to a cleaner and see what they can do.
