)))Ok so I decided to do this and started yesterday. Just to make sure I have this right, when I wipe it down with the towel(after it has been wrung out) this is to help prevent future water stains? Also can I continue to use the bag during this process?

Hi. I was told by my SA once a long time ago that it is ok to use leather "conditioner" on vachetta without risk of cracking, etc. What is your SA's take on this? I seems it should be fine. I have seen lots of cracked vachetta on ebay and certainly want to avoid this.
Ok i tried it on my neverfull it's old so already been in the sun so I didn't tan it as I had done that a few times already you can't tell the difference and it dried right before my eyes! 
Here is the after shot and then some comparison shots the top left is bran new out of the box, top right 1 week old bottom left is about 1 week ago an bottom right was after I did the wipe down. As you can see the one from a week ago and the after shot look the same!
Here is a close up of after
I summed my delightful today for an hour so will try this on her in a few days

If you don't like the patina dark then do LMB because wetting your bag and tanning it will make it darker way faster then lmb .
Got it! Thanks!!!! 😉
I am buying a brand new Azur NF GM next week and want to do this process versus LMB. But, I live in AZ with harsh sunlight. Can I set my bag on the stairs underneath my skylight and not turn it since there are no windows to face? All of my mono bags have been treated with LMB and the patina is very even and pure with no spotting. I am going to try the wipe down on my patina'd mono bags first. I don't want a dark vachetta against Azur but worry about the long-term effects of LMB on my mono bags.
Sorry for the late reply. No I didn't. My leather wasn't "bad" or dirty really. I had done LMB on it and it left a residue texture on the leather and some slight streaking. The patina was coming along but it was ever so slightly uneven in some spots. This method took off the residue feeling and made the patina even more beautiful and even!
I did the same (this process + LBM) but I was wondering... Did you do the conditioner as well?
