Accidentally swiped my new blue Burberry bag with ball point pen. I didn’t know what to do but knew alcohol would damage the color. Saw on Bob Villa to use soap & water first. Using a swab and Dawn dish detergent I got the ink out and kept the color intact. It took several rounds of application and using small gentle circles then wiped with water on a paper towel then dried it. It’s not perfect as ball point makes a slight indentation but if you don’t know where to look you don’t see it.

Using alcohol will discolor the leather. Notice how it got a lot lighter after she wiped. They show the bag at the end with a filter. Use this with extreme caution.

I have some Italian Bright Red leather with a small Ballpoint Pen mark. I too found alcohol lifted the red surface colour and left deposits on the cotton bud end I was using and left the surface lighter. I found Menthylated Spirits less aggressive and can be diluted but I still used with caution and finished with a cream restorer. Always try to use an unseen area for a test.

I used cuticle remover (not oil based per her recommendation and didn't let it sit). It discolored the leather and left a spot. I was devastated.

Don’t use alcohol on your Coach leather !!! It will remove the color and you will have spots left on your leather !!! Best results I have ever had were using small amount of Dawn dishwashing liquid on damp cloth- don’t rub too hard - circular motion - then dab area with cloth soaked in clean water then dab again with dry absorbent cloth to soak any excess moisture. Let air dry !!

I have used upholstery cleaner on the inside. Pull it out away from the bag, spray and use a small brush or dish cleaning pad. Don’t worry it won’t stain the leather if it gets in it. Persistent stains? Reapply the cleaner. Wipe after with a warm cloth! Has worked everytime!

Where do we find more tips for our bags? I have a Madeline Madison of which the dye (rose) is wearing down to the original leather color. I previously wrote to Coach and asked if you all had leather polish in that color and was told no flat out. No other recommendations. Nothing. With what $$ we invest into our bags should be enough to motivate Coach Corporate to be on our side and help us!! Maybe a few hundred dollars isn't as glamorous a handbag price to some who can spend $thousands at a time, But I don't see the support here anymore. 😡

I used Sally Hansens gel cuticle remover, the bottle is exactly the same as in the video. It’s the only one I could find in a blue bottle that wasn’t an oil - so what gives?

@ap6252004 2 жыл бұрын

You did nothing wrong, Amanda. We were just given false information. Do you think someone who makes money off of people who need restoration will actually tell us her "secrets" to remove? Nope! She'd be out of business! I'll tell you what I did, BUT, I knew going into this that I would lose color. I gently used a magic eraser. The plain ones. soaked it and made sure to squeeze all the access water. It took off the pen marks on my bag, but like I said, it also removed/lightened those little sections. I find that it would be easier to stain those areas a bit with color match, and condition it with black rock so that it blends nicely. I like to stay away from dying vintage bags.
