Help ladies. I recently bout a Patent Maxi at a great price. The bag is a tad sticky. I have tried the Vinegar as well as the Vaseline...it's still a tad sticky. Will this get worse over time? The seller has given me the option to send back but I'm torn because I got it so cheap. thoughts?

Ok ladies, please help!. I had 2 pairs of coach patent leather ballet flats - one in black and one in light nude/beige. Unfortunately, I did not know about color transfer and when we did an international move, I stored both the pairs together in a shoe bag and they were like that for a month. I opened them today and the beige bag has small black marks at 2-3 places, I could get some small light black ones off using a wet tissue. The others are stubborn. I am guessing that some came off the black patent and some off the metal buckles on the black patent. Please help! I love the nude flats - cutest pair I have owned ever.
I use 'Moneysworth and Best Patent Leather Care' on my patent bags. It may take care of the sticky problem, but it may not work with the black marks. Good Luck!
my patent bag on the back of the bag there is creases from maybe opening the bag. would that eventually crack?😱
does that happens to any ladies here as well?would u be able to fix it?

I would definitely keep an eye on the creases as patent is more prone to cracking than other leathers. Try to condition the creases a bit more. I had a wallet cracked before but none of my purses. The wallet cracked probably because I never applied any lotion on it.
The one I use is for patent leather is from Collonil...I believe Mulberry recommends them to their clients as well. http://amzn.to/1DIcvE9
You know how Chanel dust bags are black, has anyone had color transfer onto their light color patent itms from a Chanel dust bag?
Basically, is it something I should worry about.

Not yet!
I have 4 patent bags - light pink, dark blue, red and light green patent. So far no color transfer yet. If you are worried, you can use soft paper (those that use to stuff the bag) to wrap the bag before putting them into the dustbag. It helps keep moist away and prevent color transfer
I wonder if there is products you can use to prevent stains on patent leather. My SA just recommends a dry soft cloth to maintain patent.
You know how lambskin had waterproof and stain prevention spray.

This is what I was advised to buy however haven't been brave enough to use it yet! I have black patent WOC x
Ooooo will you use it soon? I realised I got my foundation all over mine today so it needs a bit of a wipe. Do you mind me asking if you purchased the neutral or black version of this product?
I recently bought a vintage patent Chanel bag and the surface was very very sticky (this was mention by the seller). So i bought a cleaner that's suitable to use on patent bag called Shu-Glo and it actually works! the stickiness is pretty much gone! I cleaned it with Shu- Glo and buffed it and then leave it to air for overnight so the cleaner have time to do it work.
I usually buy cleaner that are neutral just in case the black colour from the product does not match the black colour on the bag

Thank you! Will look it up! Congrats on your beautiful patent chanel - glad the stickiness went away!!
