IMG_0175.JPG Now it's me coming to ask for advice! My red caviar mini has what looks like a liquid stain on the bottom. Anyone know what would be best to try to get this out?

Oh no!! I would try the cadillac conditioner, it is also a cleanser. The two boutique locations I go to use that on lambskin and caviar bags, I use it on mine but they're all black, I have never experienced any bleeding or color transfer to the cloth I used, just removal of dirt. I hope it works for you, pls keep us updated.

Thanks Arlene! I will order that ASAP. I read online to try hairspray on a w-tip but didn't work. If the conditioner doesn't work, I will have to find a professional place to send it in for a good cleaning and spot treatment. Thanks again!

No problem, it doesn't hurt to try, I hope it works for you. (Fingers crossed)
 
Anyone had any issues with the burgundy inner flap? Mine got dirty after frequent usage. Anyone knows how to remove the dirt? And any recommendation for colour restoration for the burgundy inner flap please? :smile:

Hi, I see you never got an answer. The inside of my caviar m/l flap always look pretty ashy? Did you find a solution? I also noticed a small discolouring a few weeks after purchasing it. On the photo the discolouring is the whiteish spot in the left near the shadow. The bag doesn't appear as ashy on the picture, but IRL it looks ashy. How can I clean this?

Has Cadillac changed the name? The link shows a bottle that says "boot and shoe lotion" however, they also have a boot and shoe care bottle. What's the difference?
Hi, I'm sorry I'm not sure but I purchased the exact one my sales associates use. It reads boot and shoe conditioner, it cleans and conditions. Hth.
 
I have a GST in Caviar (black) and notice the leather has become a bit dry - its not as black as how it used to be when i bought it. So i bought the Coach Leather Conditioner.. Havent tried it tho on my GST. Anyone has experience with this product? Would thr black colour comes off when i wipe it? Thanks!
I have a jumbo flap in caviar that is feeling dry, almost papery. It's not shiny at all. I did some searching and came across the coach conditioner. I'm very tempted to try it. Have you tried a test patch on the bottom or inside the flap?
 
Hi guys,

I was wondering if anyone has experienced this with caviar leather over time - my WOC seems to have worn in places where I touch it often and the result is that the little 'bumps' of the caviar have developed discoloured tops. I've been going over it with black polish which works until it wears off.

Has anyone else had this happen and do you have any solutions?

Thank you!

Hello,
I have read every single reply on this post and others threads for cleaning caviar leather. I think I’m gonna order Apple conditioner and cadillar conditioner and sapphire and try them all. But first I want to show you guys a picture of my bag if any one has experience with similar level of dirt marks, I think that’s what they are.. or are they color transfer? I barely wore the bag I’m so scared I would ruin it further. I love in egypt so it’s pretty dusty.
And 2) what about Cadillac select line is it any better than the shoe one mentioned in here ?
Thanks !!!

It’s also getting dry around the edges.. i got in in 2013 wore it a couple of times and it’s been sitting in its dust bag for 2-3 years never wore it!! So is Apple or Cadillac conditioner enough or something heavier ?

Thanks again!!

I like the Cadillac products. Your bag is beautiful.
 
Thank you @Chanbal
I contacted the hand bag spa as well, they recommended “sensitive cleanse” , then “dermo protect”, but when I asked if I should send it in they responded :

“The level of dirt does look minor however the type of leather on this particular Chanel can be difficult to clean.“

Confusing me even more !
