I have a client with a new cowhide rug (why????). She wants to know if I recommend applying protector. She wants to know how to spot clean it. I just want to know why she bought it! Wasn't there a nice area rug available at the box store?
I've done some limited spot cleaning of hides before, but I'm hoping someone can educate me further. Would you recommend protector? Solvent or water based? I'd lean towards solvent but I'm open to being educated. As far as washing is concerned, can you perform a full washing on a hide and then condition the leather so it's soft again?
