^That is the one but do not buy it from their website...its $28! I paid around $8 for my bottle!


THanks nighteyes!



By the way, do you apply it to both reissues leather and lambskin?


On the front of the bottle it say " All Leathers, distressed leathers, patents, immitation leathers, plastic surfaces and reptile skins."
On the back it says its "not recommended for use on suede, nubuck or napped leathers"

Has anyone ever used this on caviar?

I'm sure it will be fine on caviar, thats the most durable leather that Chanel uses! I'm not sure if the leather straps on my Evening Star is calfskin or lambskin but either ways it worked great! (I actually think it might be lambskin becasuse it got dirty VERY quickly!)

Thanks so much..i am expecting my new pst in beige clair and i want to protect it but i don't want to alter the color in any way..
 
i used appleguard cleaner on my *new to me* white caviar which was quite yellowed and used and it works great. i wanted the threads to be clean, so i got a toothbrush and brushed the threads and they got cleaner!

i also use the apple cleaner and care for my black caviar too.

i started using the cleaner for my red lambskin but i stopped cuz the red was transfering onto the cleaning cloth.

i'm thinking about buying melatonin.

O.M.G. I thought it was only me!

I experienced the exact same thing you've said. :push:

Appleguard works fine on all my BBags (purple, gray, black, and white) and Chanel Caviar leather (brown, black and 09C Red) but maybe not for the Red lambskin. :shrugs:

I'm also thinking the same thing about getting the 'melatonin'
 
Below is what I got from Penny at Hirs:

We cannot recommend a product to condition the leather. However, we use in house….. on occasion….. on BLACK Lambskin and Caviar ONLY (Not COLORS)….. “Meltonian Delicate Cream #170.” Just a little on a soft cloth. Not to soak the leather. JUST A LITTLE AMOUNT. See photo attached. It really takes out all scratches from Lambskin. Such a great product.
This is what my manager wrote me.
Hope this helps.
