Cleaning Alacantra Lining

I purchased a bag with Alcantra lining for the purposes of doing it up
. The inside was filthy and so I used a cleaning/scrubbing brush with soap and water
Not sure if I'd have done that if I hadnt purchased it to restore
But it worked perfectly :smile:

Thanks. I was thinking the same. How long did it take to dry?
 
I'm not sure as I did it just before I went to work. I left it to dry for a full day in the open air though so as to ensure it didn't get damp at all.

It was still damp during the second picture and isn't done yet, but a pretty big difference all the same! I was pretty impressed
