Hi. I am currently eyeing one from *bay. However the bag has plenty of red marks, maybe stains and the seller has no idea what they are from. He is either not sure if it can be cleaned off or not.

So question for you, what is the material made of? Canvas or coated canvas??? And do you think It can be cleaned with alcohol free baby wipes, maybe dish washing liquid or maybe dry clean?

i dont think you can clean it with alcohol free baby wipes cause it looks like the stains have been soaked into the canvas for pretty long

I wouldn't do it. It took me a long time to get the stain out of my beige coated canvas, and it still didn't take all of the stain out. I think there was another thread about the white coated canvas that stained as well.

Good luck!

I wouldn´t buy it.
If the stain will go away, any seller would do it before selling the bag.
