Upholstery

I have leather seating on a yacht around table.
It is now 10 years old. Keep it fairly well covered when underway to prevent sun damage as such is a catamaran with lots of light.
Does any one know the best way to clean to keep it new looking.

Re: Upholstery

Oil it. Find some mink oil non coloured and rub it down. Best to do it warm so it melts and really sinks in. It will darken And you don’t really want to sit on it for a few hours but it will keep it from cracking and fading (within reason).
