Clean leather sofa that has grease stains from hair

In some old castles old leather armchairs are shown to the visitors, where Igor the evil pressed his head against the back. There you will definitely not do anything against the grease stains, after all they are a visitor attraction.

It looks different at home. What to do if a greasy stain shows up where the head of the house owner squeezed into the leather upholstery while slumbering in front of the TV?

There are several home remedies, I suggest two here.


Sour beer and egg whites.

The sour beer can be prepared this way: leave an open container with beer for several days next to a heater. Then dip a soft cloth and do not rub the stain, but press. And repeat.

Let dry.

Alternatively, you can beat two egg whites to snow and clean them.

This is an old French home remedy!
