The Uniters Leather Care Kit (Midi) is a simple two-step leather care system: Leather Soft Cleaner to remove soiling, then Leather Conditioning Cream to keep the leather soft and help protect it from stains. Uniters is the Italian maker of the Leather Master range, and the kit is boxed under the Uniters Leather Care name.
What is in the kit
- Leather Soft Cleaner, 150 ml (step 1)

What each product does
- Leather Soft Cleaner — a gentle, pH-neutral cleaner suitable for regular cleaning. It removes everyday grime as well as most water-based spots and stains.
- Leather Conditioning Cream — keeps leather soft and flexible, and has leather protection built in. Uniters states it helps protect leather from most common stains (water, oil and alcohol based) and makes any stains that do occur easier to remove.
Uniters is plain about the limit: nothing can provide 100% protection. Tell the customer that too.
Which leathers
Suitable for all types of leather except nubuck and suede. That covers most leather upholstery, shoes, bags and apparel.
For nubuck and suede, use the Leather Master Nubuck Cleaning Kit.
How to use it
Follow the care instructions in the pack. In outline:
- Test first on a hidden area: apply a little product to a clean white cloth, rub gently and check for colour transfer.
- Dampen the sponge, add Soft Cleaner and squeeze the sponge to create foam. Foam keeps the cleaner on the surface where the soil is.
- Apply the foam, give it a few moments to dissolve the dirt, then remove it with a clean cloth. Do not rub or scrub.
- Allow the leather to dry.
- Apply the Conditioning Cream with a soft cloth.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Conditioning Cream protect against stains?
Yes, within limits. Uniters states it helps protect leather from most common water, oil and alcohol based stains and makes stains easier to remove. It is not a guarantee against every spill.
How often should leather be cleaned?
Leather Master Australia suggests every 3–6 months for domestic furniture and about every 40 days for commercial seating.
What if Soft Cleaner does not remove the stain?
Clean the area again. If that does not work, test and use Strong Cleaner. Oil and grease that have soaked in need Leather Degreaser, and ballpoint ink on pigmented leather needs Ink Away.
Can I use it on shoes, bags and jackets?
Yes. Uniters lists it for leather upholstery, shoes, bags and apparel, other than nubuck and suede.
