I have a set of black leather couches that I plan on keeping for a few more yaers. They're a little worn out though, with a few scratches and scuff marks etc...not to mention some parts of it are dusty. any particular way to clean them, or is regular windex/hot water okay? or do I need a special cleanser for leather couches?

are you trying to get rid of stains or just regular cleanup?

There are special products for leather.

My couches are leather also and I use a cleaner first which is a mild foamy type cleaner.

Then, I moisturize using a leather lotion I got from the furniture store. That helps keep it looking nice, shiny and supple.

The how clean is your hosue ladies say the best thing for leather couches is SADDLE SOAP, u rub a bit onto a cloth and rub the sofa with it, it cleans and conditions.

Check Walmart...they should have leather furniture care products, same aisle where you'll find detergents I believe.
