Leather Bag
November 13th, 2011
I was wearing a black dress and the color transferred onto my white leather bag. How can I get it out?
The dress was brand new and it was black cotton. It basically ruined my white leather coach bag. I went to the Coach store and their leather cleaner didn't work. They suggested a product called Lexol. Has anyone heard of this? Does anyone have any suggestions? The lady at the Coach store told me that I could always take it to a shoe repair and have them completely dye my white bag black. That sounds crazy to me. There has to be another solution!
You have what is known as dye transfer.
You need a strong detergent cleaner like Maxi Cleaner to try to remove this. (Maxi Cleaner was developed especially for this problem) The dye will have gone into the finish on the leather and the deeper it has gone the harder it will be to remove.
Please do not use solvents or hairspray on this as it may make matters much worse.
If Maxi Cleaner does not work then no other cleaner will and you will need to call a qualified leather technician.
A good leather technician will have the proper products to do this and he may have to replace finish and pigment so it is best left to him/her to do.
A good leather protector will inhibit this kind of thing happening again.
