Cleaning/Caring for Chanel PATENT Leather

[Arlene619]

Hello everyone, I purchased my first patent Chanel bag. Dumb question, would it be ok if I got caught in the rain with my bag? I have an LV patent bag and it was fine in the rain . Tia.

Just noticed a pen mark on my mini will it come out? What can I use?

Sorry to say, patent can not be fixed.

I have heard that soaking a cotton ball in rubbing alcohol can work. It takes the ink out slowly so you may have to do this more than once. I can’t guarantee this but have heard it works. Good luck.

I'm trying to clean this vintage piece up so I can sell it. I'm not a fan of the chain strap. I've tried mild soap etc., doesn't work. Lots of yellowing. How can I get it cleaned up?

Does anyone have any advice or tips on repellents or protectors they have used on patent leather?

You can't fix colour transfer on patent bags, sadly. Leather Surgeons did an FAQ about this as well: http://www.leathersurgeons.com/faq

No fix for patent unfortunately. What was the transfer from out of interest?
Sorry this happened.

I am so sorry, I am gutted just looking, I can’t imagine what an awful shock it was to you when you saw it. My heart hurts for you!

As already stated, patent color transfer is not fixable. These bags are so appealing, but so risky. And at these price tags, there should be some major warnings for consumers.
