CLEANING YOUR COWHIDE

Cowhides are most popular as floor coverings in a domestic environment and have a natural grip on the underside of the hide to prevent slipping and moving. Cowhides should not be used as a floor covering in wet areas or areas with direct sunlight or concentrated heat. In a traffic area, it is unavoidable that a hide mat will show wear although rotating the hide occasionally will help to even out wear and traffic marks.

To keep your cowhide clean and free of dirt and dust build-up, simply include your cowhide as part of your normal domestic cleaning routine. Cowhides can be vacuumed as part of your normal vacuuming cycle and a shake-out outside will also help to loosen any particles from the hairs. Brushing the hide with a hard plastic brush, in the direction of the hair, will help keep the hairs soft and also loosen small dust abd dirt particles from the hairs.

Spills should be treated immediately while the liquid is pooled on the surface of the hair. Spills left to sit on the hide will eventually be absorbed into the leather and may not be able to be removed. Small spills and light soiling can be treated with a mild, non-alkaline soapy solution (ie: shampoo and water), wiping in the direction of the hair. Avoid soaking the hide. Heavy stains such as wine, coffee, tea, juice and bodily fluids should be soaked up immediately with a paper towel and sponge, scrape any solid matter off the hide, don't rub. Wipe the stain with a damp cloth and mild soapy solution to remove the excess fluid then rub vigorously to release the deep staining.
