Caring for Your Cowhide Rug

1. Shake & Vacuum Regularly

Dust and dirt can settle into the fibers, so shake out your rug outdoors every few weeks. Use a vacuum on a low setting (without the beater bar) to remove debris gently.

2. Spot Clean Spills Immediately

Blot any spills with a dry or slightly damp cloth—never rub, as this can damage the hair. Avoid harsh chemicals that may dry out the hide.

3. Use a Specialized Hide Cleaner

For deep cleaning, apply a high-quality hide cleaner designed specifically for cowhide.

• Spray or apply the cleaner lightly to the affected area.
• Gently wipe with a soft cloth in the direction of the hair.
• Allow the rug to air dry naturally—avoid direct sunlight and heat sources.

4. Brush for a Fresh Look

Use a soft-bristle brush to restore the rug’s texture and remove any trapped dirt.

5. Prevent Curling & Wrinkles

If edges start to curl, lightly dampen them and place a flat, heavy object on top until they relax. Rotate your rug occasionally to prevent uneven wear.

With these simple steps, your cowhide rug will remain soft, clean, and luxurious for years to come!
