Default Cleaning Chanel Bags...Apple Leather Care Leather Conditioner

I just want to make sure I am buying the correct product...I have never heard of this leather cleaner until the forums, Will it work on my patent?... Other than online, which stores carry it? Thanks!

This is the correct one for leather bags. Always try on a small spot that is not noticeable first.
I don't think this works on patent. I know Tana has a patent spray. Try that.

I have the apple products, I would not use them on lambskin at all, It ruined a prada bag I had, I think its ok for caviar but i agree try a small area that is hidden.

I think apple works on some lambskin, not all. It didn't work on on one of my lambskin bags but it did for the other.

Like the rest said, always always ALWAYS try a small spot (preferably on the inside) first!

I use a product called Weimann Leather Wipes on my vintage lambskin flap and classic lambskin wallet with no adverse affects. They come in a cannister and can be purchased in the cleaning supplies aisle of your local grocery store. I would not use them on patent though.

I use Apple leather care for all of my bags and it hasn't damanged a single one (knock on wood). I used it on my Chanel lambskin Camellia wallet (since it's the only lambskin piece I have) and it did not do ANY damage...it softened the leather quite nicely!!

I've used Apple conditioner on my anniversary edition reissue and it works fine. However I haven't tried it on the glazed lambskin, that one I'm a little iffy about since it might take out the glaze.

Yes...I use it on all of my caviar bags and no problem...it shouldn't be a problem on cambon either since it's calfskin but do a spot test (especially on the lighter colors)
