I, too, am interested in the process of the restoration because God forbid doc is not around to help. Doc's expertise is truly a gift to tpf. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and the pictures. Treasure your barenia. It now has a lived experience that you will not forget. Long live barenia and our incredible Doc!

This is just amazing! I had to cringe the first time I saw the thread and was eagerly anticipating a happy ending. I'm so happy for you! And shout out to @docride! I bought her cleansing wipes and those are just the best! I carry them all the time in case of accidents and such.

You did a fantastic job!!! It takes nerves of steel to create those dark wet blotches, but it is quite satisfying to watch the leather lighten up as it dries...and the stain is usually gone or significantly reduced. So happy for you!
