Can Meltonian be used on glazed lambskin?

Like Fufu..I would also like to get hold of the Meltonian cleaner and conditioner. Could anyone share where to purchase Meltonian products?
Thanks in advance :)

Count me in!

I would like to get hold of a bottle too, now that my two light colour flaps are arriving. Meltonian is not available at all in my country (same as fufu and tartine) :shrugs::shrugs::shrugs:

I'm desperately looking for sources to buy meltonian :( Sellrs that I find in Ebay usually only ship around US and not to othe countries :(

Im not sure if glazed lambskin can be used, as it's different from the normal lambskin..

Previously i found one that sell, but they want all my credit card numbers, including the secret numbers behind, I felt so insecure to give them.. oww :(

Apart from cobbler shops, can we get it off the counter, like from Targets, or Walmart? May have to ask my friend who is travelling to the states to buy for me ...

I have a vint (4series) beige flattened lambskin bag, and Apple Guard Conditioner darkened several "dry spots"- specifically the edges :cry:. It sort of accentuated the creases and its really ugly now... dont know what to dooo.
My black lambskin 2.55 flap should be coming next week, would the Apple Guard Conditioner work well with black lambskin? or should i get another product (im looking at LMB packs). Thanks!!!!

I read in some thread post that Apple Guard works for Cavier..but not on lambskin. Sorry to hear about your plight.:sad:

I'm confused.. when you guys are talking about scratches on lambskin, are we talking about fingernail marks? I ask b/c I have a black lambskin and it has chain marks on it (not much but otherwise perfect). Does the conditioners, apple guards work for removal of chain marks? Or should I try to rub them to remove the marks?

Pls help need expert advice on how to restore shine in a vintage black lambskin flap. It's looking dull compared to her other much shinier flaps but also vintage. I'm just posting this for a desperate friend.We don't have Chanel in our country so can't go there. What product. Can you recommend ? Thanks a lot in advance

^I am thinking about ordering the New Shine Restore from lovinmybags.

And Saks4me, I don't know how much it will help, but where there were minor chain marks, I tried pushing them out from the underside, and they went away. But they were very little, and some of my little chain marks have gone away by themselves overnight, so I don't know...

eeee??

i have some leather conditioner "meltonian boot & shoe cream polish." it is what the man at a very very well respected leather shop recommened (so i took his word). however, while i was conditioning my black lamskin classic flap, i noticed black dye rubbing off on the white rag. i was conditioning gently. despite the dye on the rag, i did not see a difference in the dye color on the bag itself; it does not seem to be fading.

is this normal?
should i stop conditioning?

When conditioning my black lamb w/luvinmybags product I've seen a very small amount of black on the sponge. I'm not worried about it. There is no visible change to the purse at all and it was a very small amount. Probably the second time you condition it won't happen.

hmmm... dirt perhaps? since lamb is matte, they are more prone to surface dust/dirt settling. although i don't own any lamb yet, i find a little when i use baby wipes on my caviar. since they're black you won't really know unless after cleaning.

I think is normal to have a little dye came out from the first condition.
Best is not to rub too hard (light back and forth motion)

I have not use baby wipes too, but i reckon for my first time i will use it lightly to test it out first..
