Remove grease from leather


how do I remove grease from a leather bag?

Stains from oil or grease can be lifted by grinding ordinary blackboard chalk, sprinkling the area, and leaving the powder on for a twenty-four hour period. Resist the urge to rub the powder in. After a sufficient time has past, simply use a leather care brush to remove the powder. If the stain is fresh stains it can be treated and cleaned at home, ground-in stains should be attended to by a professional cleaner who deals in leather.
