I’m going to make this post very concise, because I’ve already written another post about how to clean and make a faux leather headboard look great all the time, however, in the previous post, I dealt only with small sized ones, which are very easy to maintain, but today, I’m going to talk about king size ones, the big and very difficult to maintain ones.
At home, I have a king-size faux leather headboard, and trust me, it’s very difficult to take good care of, but when you start using the advice I’m going to share with you, it’s going to become very easy for you.
The first one is to always use saddle soap.
Although saddle soap is going to be viewed as a product for making shoes shine and giving them a second life, it’s also very nourishing when it comes to faux leather headboards, especially the king-size ones, since you cannot use a lot of conditioner with it, that’s why I highly recommend that you use saddle soap, it’s very affordable, and most importantly, as mentioned before, it’s very nourishing for the faux leather fabric, it’s going to create a protective layer on top of it, which is going to keep sunlight, especially UV rays, and moisture away from it, most importantly, it’s going to nourish the fabric and make it preserve and keep its original texture.
Indeed, this is the most important step you need to take in order to keep your faux leather headboard king-size looking amazing.
The second thing you can do as well is to use a good leather conditioner.
For all your leather and faux leather items, I highly recommend Saddle soap. Click here to try it!
You must use a good leather conditioner, especially one that contains honey, at least two times a year, or every six months, it’s very important and it’s also going to keep the faux leather fabric looking great.

Thank you so much for your information. I have searched high and low for a good quality faux leather since my main source for “Arizona Faux Leather” stopped making my most popular fabric for my Batman capes; a VERY popular costume for me. When I saw your suggestion on Big Z Fabrics I was over the moon. I have ordered many swatches and look forward to my samples coming in the mail. Thank you for ALL the articles and info you have shared and please keep ‘um coming 🙂 Sincerely, Dallas from “The Wishmaster’s Capes & Costumes!
