Cleaning the Leather Handle Bar and the Bumber Bar
- Cleaning and conditioning of the leather is recommended only when needed to extend the life of the leather and contribute to the quality of its appearance.
- SURFACE DIRT: Most surface dirt can be removed by gently wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Do not dry in the sun.
- SCUFFS: Lightly rub scuffs with your fingers. Often the natural oils in the leather will help buff out small scuffs.

Cleaning the frame
- Clean frame with a damp cloth and mild detergent; dry thoroughly. DO NOT use abrasives.
- If parts of the stroller frame have been exposed to saltwater, we recommend the parts are rinsed with fresh (tap) water as soon as possible to avoid corrosion.
- Always make sure to dry the frame if is wet.
- A magic eraser is a great tool to remove scratches or scuffs on your stroller frame
Maintaining the frame
- Do not put excess weight on the stroller frame by hanging shopping bags off of the handlebar, the stroller basket distributes the pressure on the stroller more efficiently!
- Noticing a squeak in your stroller frame? Try using a bit of oil / lubricant on the hinges of your stroller to keep it in tip-top condition
- Make sure you are folding your stroller correctly to avoid scratches along the front bumper!
Cleaning the fabrics
- At our Tune Up events, we use a mild, eco spray cleaner to treat stains in the fabrics.
- The canopy, seat and basket fabric can all be removed from the stroller and are machine washable.
- If you are machine washing your fabrics, put them on a delicates wash with a mild detergent and lie flat away from direct sunlight to dry.
- You can push the seat part of your fabric inside out (in the picture) to hoover out all of those hidden crumbs.
Maintaining your wheels
- All 4 of the wheels on your stroller can be removed. The best way to clean them is to take them off and steep them in the sink to remove any dirt.
- To remove more stubborn dirt, give them a good scrub after they have been steeping.
- Make sure to hoover out any dirt & sand that may get into the part of the stroller frame where your wheels are. Any debris present can hinder the performance of your brake.
- After cleaning your wheels, pop a bit of oil / lubricant on the spokes of your wheels to keep them in good condition.
