It’s Spring, and Leather Needs Some Cleaning Too!

In our last few blogs we have talked about the importance of protecting not only fabric furniture but also wood furniture. A lot of time people neglect leather which is rather odd considering that most people buy leather because it won’t stain and also because it will last a long time. Traditionally many people think that it can just be wiped down with water and a rag once in awhile and it’s good to go! Nothing could be farther away from the truth. Like wood, leather is a very porous material. It needs to have its moisture replenished and restored. If leather gets to dry, it will crack and at that point it will be beyond repair. In addition, leather has grain and dirt and grim can get caught in the grain of the leather. In order to properly clean the leather, a good cleaner and conditioner is needed to be able to cleanse the leather grain and without drying it out.

Textile Armor understands the need to have superior leather cleaning products and has created a line of leather protection that is not only superior in quality, but does not contain any CFC’s, silicones, is non-toxic and non-allergenic. Textile Armor’s Leather Protector and Conditioner not only protects the leather but is also has anti-drying and anti-cracking properties, it will restore and bring new life into tired leather. Textile Armor’s Leather Cleaner has been specifically designed to remove stains from the top coat of leather. It will also remove other build up that will dull the luster of your leather. The combination of these products will enhance the beauty of your leather and help increase the lifespan of your furniture!

Leather is an investment, and if it is taken care of properly it can last and look beautiful for years and years. If it is not well maintained, then it will look dirty and lack its natural glow. Get the most out of your leather and look into Textile Armor’s complete line of Leather Protection!

Spring Cleaning, Take Care of Your Wood!

In our last blog we talked about the importance of not neglecting fabric furniture during spring cleaning. In this blog we are going to discuss how crucial it is to not only clean, but also how to protect your wood furniture.

Traditionally, spring cleaning entails digging through closets and scrubbing tile floors-but many people neglect the large pieces of furniture that take a beating everyday! Take a moment to think about everything that your coffee table, end table and dinning room table have endured. Most likely your wood furniture has had food/drinks spilled on it; things piled on and slid off, and have suffered anything else that your children and animals have come up with! However, despite everything that wood must withstand, it is expected to not only last, but look beautiful and maintain its luster!

Textile Armor understands the demands that are placed on your wood. Because of this, Textile Armor has developed and created three very different yet unique products meant to enhance the natural glow and luster of your wood as well as help preserve it for years to come!

Wood is a very porous material; because of this it is important to put moisture back into the wood. Textile Armor has developed a Cream Polish that not only puts moisture back into the wood, but it will also restore its natural glow and luster. In contrast to other Cream Polishes, Textile Armors Cream Polish also provides a deep cleaning for all finished wood surfaces.

Many things can ruin the finish of wood. Simply placing a grocery bag on the table and then sliding it off can scratch it! Because of this Textile Armor has designed and developed a product that creates an invisible barrier between the object and your wood surface. The Scratch Guard product will greatly reduce the chance of your wood forever being marred by a horrible scratch!

The third product that Textile Armor has created is a product that repels dust! Think about how many times in a given month you dust… We all know that it takes way to much time! Textile Armor has created a product called Dust Off; Dust Off works by actually repelling dust from your wood furniture!

This spring, don’t neglect your wood! Use the tried and try products from Textile Armor and breathe new life into your old wood furniture!

While not many of us actually enjoy the act of deep cleaning our house, the feeling of accomplishment that it brings is something that little else can rival. But, there is a reason that it only happens once per year. How many people really want to dedicate their entire weekend to dirty mop water, cleaning out closets and scrubbing the tile in the bathroom? When the event of Spring Cleaning is done, most likely your house will have never looked better. But what most people neglect to clean or protect is their fabric furniture, mattresses, leather and wood…In this blog as well as over the coming weeks, we will talk about how you can get the most out of your Spring Cleaning!

Take a minute and consider how long you have had your couch, chair or loveseat… A year-more than that perhaps? Now consider how many times you have sat on your furniture, think of everything that could be on the fabric. It is really fair to expect your fabric to look its best without really giving it a fighting chance against stains and everyday wear and tear?

Textile Armor has two lines of fabric protection that can help you not only protect your fabric from everyday wear and tear, but it will also prevent any stains from spillage. The first product is the U.S QD Fabric Protection. This product is a solvent that dries incredibly quickly and can be used on both natural and synthetic fibers. After the initial application, the product will dry within 12 minutes.

The second product is the U.S 2000 Fabric Protection. The main difference between this product and the U.S QD Fabric Protection is that the U.S 2000 is water based. The U.S 2000 Fabric Protection can also be used on both synthetic and natural fibers and will help preserve your furniture for years to come.

Keep Your Car Looking Good-For The Long Haul!

In our last blog we talked about the importance of maintaining the leather in your car. In this blog we are going to talk about how important it is to protect the fabric in your car from all the lovely things that can get spilled on it while you are driving…And if you have kids-protecting the fabric in your car is a must!!

Second to buying a home, your car is most likely the most expensive investment that you have. Unfortunately it also loses its value rather fast. One of the ways that it does this is by how it looks aesthetically. The wear and tear as well as the stains in the interior can make it look older than it is and ultimately hurt the resell value.

Take a minute and think of all the things that not only get spilled in your car, but also get ground into the fabric… Coffee, sodas, chips, burgers, fries, etc… Most people when they first buy a new car for a time resolve that they will not eat anything in their car in order to avoid these food horrors. More likely than not, people do not hold to this resolve for more than a couple weeks. And eventually the new fabric bears the stains of all the food that has been eaten and spilled on it. While no one likes stains, many people feel that they can not do a whole lot to prevent it-but this is not true.

Textile Armor has two incredible products that can be used on both natural and synthetic fibers. The first product is the U.S QD Fabric Protection which is a quick dry product that is solvent based and will dry in less than 12 minutes. The second product is the U.S 2000 Fabric Protection which is water based and can also be used on both natural and synthetic fibers. Both of these products are non-toxic and non-allergenic and is environmentally friendly.

If you are looking for a fabric protection line to protect the fabric in your car against the grease, wear and tear of use, then the fabric protection line at Textile Armor might just be what you are looking for!

Love Your Car, Love Your Leather….

Aside from purchasing a house, a person’s car is most likely their most valuable asset. Remember the day when you picked up your first car? It didn’t matter how much of a beat up clunker it was, chances are you were absolutely in love with it. Fast forward years later and you probably have a much nicer car, but wait! There is grease and soda stains on the passenger seat!! What a lot of people don’t realize is that by applying a good and high quality leather cleaner (like the leather protection line at Textile Armor) it can not only restore your leather and give it back its original glow, but it can also help its resell value… Come on, wasn’t the leather in your car one of the selling features for you??

But its leather, it’s supposed to be durable… Right???

Leather is incredibly durable, it can with stand so much more than fabric or upholstery-but that does not make it indestructible. Depending on where you live, the leather in your car will withstand extreme temperatures: extreme heat in the summer and freezing cold in the winter. Chances are your leather also has food and liquids spilt on it as well. In addition, your leather also has to with stand the regular wear and tear that comes from just getting in and out of your car! When you think about it, the leather in your car has to stand up to a lot. And if you don’t maintain it properly, it will lose its glow; it will crack, loose its shape and can also become stiff. The great news is that all this can be avoided with a line of leather protection!

Textile Armor has a complete line of leather protection. The leather protection and conditioner work by putting moisture back into the tired and dried out leather. In addition it also has anti-drying and anti-cracking properties. Textile Armor’s leather cleaner will remove stains that are on the top layer of the leather. In addition to removing stains, it will all remove dust and any other build up of material.

Does it Really Matter?

Many people think that it doesn’t really matter what chemicals they use in their household. After all, how much harm can regular household chemicals really do? Studies have found that everyday more and more people are using cleaning product that contain dangerous and hazardous chemicals. According to Dr. Dick Irwin a Toxicologist at Texas A&M University he stated “Chemicals have replaced bacteria and viruses as the main threat to health. The diseases we are beginning to see as the major causes of death in the latter part of (the 1900's) and into the 21st century are diseases of chemical origin.” The question is, does it matter to you?

The Havoc of Animals on Your Furniture…
