Thanks Tejava! The bag that's coming in though, is actually white leather with black patent trim? So it's half leather and half patent. I'm wondering how to spray the white leather without potentially ruining the patent with the spray..I'm pretty clumsy so I'm worried I'll accidentally spill it or something..

Tejava, Axcelle

OK, thank you so much!
So I can use it on glazed Noir I think. And it should be good for Nikki too. I used some conditioner on Nikki yesterday, and it lost it shine and became little bit stiff. I'm not so happy with it. I buffed it with dry close to make it shine again.

Do you know those paper tapes people use when they paint the house to protect the borders? I use those to protect my bags when I need to polish the hardware with Brasso.

It sounds like it should work. As always, I would try it on a small spot on the bottom first to see, then you can use it everywhere.

Does Apple Guard also has the cleaning function or it only works well on new bags?

starkfan · Jul 9th, 2009, 10:09 PM

Apple Garde is a water-repellent spray that protects a bag (no cleaner in Apple Garde) and can be used on anything old or new. It's the Apple Leather Care conditioner that is a mild cleaner as well as a leather conditioner. Both can be used on bags old and new, although it usually isn't necessary to condition a new bag, just to spray it. HTH!

I've read through this thread and decided to get LMB leather kit, it's been well over 48 hours and I haven't got a shipping cofirmation or reply to my email.. Anyone order from them recently??
It's a bummer coz I'm holding off using my Almond MAMM until I can protect it!!

alpengold · Jul 10th, 2009, 04:42 AM

I'm waiting for shipping confirmation from LMB too. Hoping to get it today. Maybe it's vacation time...

I ordered from them on 6/20, and got the shipping notice on 6/23.

I just got my shipping confirmation from LMB, after 48 hours. Not bad. But I didn't get any mail answers.

kayyle · Jul 10th, 2009, 08:47 PM

aw shucks, I paid Monday 07/06 at 12:20 AM, I got the receipt & automated thank you email but have yet to get the shipping confirmation email. I don't know if it makes any difference that I'm in Canada, but shipping is shipping

I sent them a msg prior to buying, then then yesterday I sent an email asking about the shipment. No reply so far!

alpengold - when did you order?

tejava · Jul 10th, 2009, 09:11 PM

Before I made my purchase on LMB, I sent them an email asking if there is a discount code for tpf members, but they NEVER replied.

They have a tendency not to reply emails then.. grr.. well all I can hope is that my shipping confirmation at least comes SOON! it's been so many days!

alpengold · Jul 11th, 2009, 03:07 AM

I made my order on Thursday 07/09, got order confirm at ones, and shipping confirm on Friday 07/10.
I used PF code for 10%,

kayyle · Jul 11th, 2009, 11:03 PM

^ shucks I didn't know there was a PF code!

Anyhow I did get a reply from her today!

Hi KAy,
It shipped on July 6, 2009 tracking # LJ519764817US
The USPS is supposed to automatically send notice with tracking - but it seems like it must not be working since a lot of my customers are not getting them...so I will start sending out notice myself.
Now in your order case - the USPS doesn’t seem to have an update yet...but that happens sometime ..you should receive the package within 6-10 days.
Let me know when you get it.
Take care,
Barbara
