In order to keep your fur looking young and beautiful, fur cleaning is an important process. The most important part of a fur is the leather backing which is hidden under the lining, if this part is maintained thru regular cleanings, your fur will last many additional years.
To understand the
fur cleaning and
fur conditioning process. Unlike wool, silk or cloth, which is cleaned by immersion, the abrasion method is used to clean fur. The
furrier prepares a drum filled with
sawdust or ground corn cobs with a
mild cleaning solution (we at Marc Kaufman Furs has a special solution passed down from generation to generation) The fur technician places the fur coat into the drum. The garment is tumbled repeatedly to remove all dirt, oils and odors. A
fur glazing solution is then applied to the fur to add sheen and restore the soft and fluffy texture.
Each fur company may have their own special cleaning agent which they use.
Most furriers use a fur cleaning service because of space limitations and operating costs.
