tiffanystar · Mar 12th, 2008, 05:35 AM

OMG Chaz thanks for this. I will definately use my C-spray.

I can hardly believe what I've just seen!!

In fact, I had to look at the pictures several times just to take it all in!!!

I couldn't believe my eyes when I opened this post and saw what you have been doing to your bags!!! OMG!

I'm also glad that you said that this only works on Darwin leather as I was going to ask that question (being a newbie an all!)

I thought as there was alot of new girls coming onto the forum,it might be a really helpful thing.Do you think Swanky could clean out the chat,and turn it into a sticky?? I have got more pics of other bags I have done,and maybe Mulberry London could give some advice about some of the other leathers.
I got to say though Ali,I soaked my Hanover in Collinil,did'nt do it at first,it said pre treated,so I inored my inner voice taht said to do it,and got three pretty large rainmarks on the back where I brushed against a car,pissed??? Ooooo,don't get me even started!!!

Anyway!! Moving swiftly on!! Lol!!! I sprayed it,its soft havana leather,and its great now,no more worries about getting caught in the rain in it!!!

I know,it makes me giggle when someone is worried about using collinil and will it work etc,and I did THAT!!!! hahahahahaha!!! But as I said to Ali,I noticed a lot of new girls around so I thought I'd bring it out of the archives and dust it down again!! 13 pages back!! It was 11pm,and I was dying to go to bed,but if I had left it I would have forgotten to do it today(I was up late glossing the bathroom while Sophie was out of the way) So don't worry!! Get spraying!!!

a few shoes shops sell in in stratford even the bit*h in my parade but i would rather get water stains than go to her!!v (not bitter Chaz honest)!!

JARMOM · Mar 12th, 2008, 11:27 AM

Is this the product you used...

JARMOM · Mar 12th, 2008, 11:28 AM

or is it this one...

eviemarie · Mar 12th, 2008, 11:37 AM

i use the 2nd one but i would wait to see what chaz says as i am probally using the wrong one.

chaz · Mar 12th, 2008, 02:47 PM

Its def the second one!!! So you are using the right stuff Evie!!xx

clooneyismine · Mar 12th, 2008, 06:46 PM

Wow!!! I'm not sure that I'm worthy to be in your presence Chaz!! My first oak bag got left in a puddle of water and I screamed at my son (he'd just got out of the bath and it was at the bottom of the stairs). Huge stain on the bottom of it BUT I had already drowned it in c spray and, hey presto, no stain - I knew it worked and have subs sprayed all my bags (although not that worried about the black ones because diff to see water stains). I would NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER have done what you have done. I get goosebumps even thinking about it.... No sireee!!

kerilynn3 · Mar 12th, 2008, 06:51 PM

I noticed that the protector I bought with my sons shoes is the same stuff and even says made by Collonil (even though the bottle says Russell and Bromley)!

blueberryuk · Mar 12th, 2008, 07:25 PM

Absolutely amazing pics Chaz, thanks for keeping this thread up to date!!

chaz · Mar 12th, 2008, 07:50 PM

Kroquets Annie getting a spa before her flight home!!
1 Before spraying
2 Srayed
3 Detail of how much collinil is actually going on,its literally running off
4 All been sprayed,but you can see it returning to its original color,this is just minutes,does'nt take long at all.
5 And another detail,make sure that you give all the stiching a good dousing too.
