Use an alcohol free baby wipe or a clean white damp cloth and it will come off. It will not hurt the canvas, in fact, may swear that they use it on their canvas parts too and it prevents the canvas from cracking over the years. I have not used it on the canvas of my bags, but I have on my wallets and none of my wallets have any canvas cracks and the edge seals look great too!

Apple Guarde Water Repelant Spray is only for vachetta leather...untreated leather. The handles of Mini Lin bags are treated so there is no need to spray them

What about the handles of the Damier series? I think they are also treated and do not need additional conditioning with the spray?

No, wipe it off with a cloth if it bothers you, but it will NOT stain. I used Apple Garde on my entire Mini Lin Speedy. It states on the bottle and website that it is also for waterproofing fabrics.

No, the Damier items are very weatherproof already!

Do NOT use leather conditioner on the fabric!

However, Apple Garde spray is for leather AND fabric (read the can). I used it on my entire Mini Lin Dune Speedy to protect it from stains.

Can I straight away spray the Apple Garde Stain and Water Repellant on Patina handles?
Do I need to use Apple Cleaner or Conditioner before spraying?
Can I spray on the canvas as well?

Thank you very much!
