Coach Rehab and Rescue Club

After a month of taking an involuntary rehab break, I finally got to dunk a bag! A bottle green Dinky! The rehab was my usual steps plus polishing the hardware for once…:lol:

Some scratches on the back didn’t come out, they’re a bit deep so I wasn’t expecting too much of a change.

Before pics are a little washed out from trying to focus my camera on the wear, my bad!:

Nice...my red NYC is still drying...but looking good.
 
So devastated! Just went to put an order in on the cpr website and they're now saying they don't ship to England! When I did a mock order in the past it worked (I ended up buying from eBay instead).

Looks PERFECT!!! I like the Dinky strap because I'm so short that it's the perfect shoulder and xbdy length for me.
 
This is for all my color experts. I have a Zippered Clutch 9455. I assumed it should be a burgundy bag. However the wrist strap is clearly brown.
Can anyone clarify why this would be? Is the bag color off and needs recoloring? Is the strap a replacement?
For context I have dunked the bag, dried, and applied 1 coat of conditioner. I cannot get my phone to pick up all the red but has very red undertones

looks BT to me...but the strap might be a replacement...I have no idea....Have had to much chocolate.
 
I got this cute colorful little patchwork canvas bag on shopgoodwill. M0649-10454. Turns out to have stains galore. Something catastrophic bad happened to this bag. Anyway, I threw it in the washing machine. Didn't help. I have one more cleaning technique I want to do (some heavy duty upholstery stain cleaner product), and my last resortView attachment 5106677View attachment 5106678View attachment 5106679 idea is to use fabric paint pens to draw/doodle/create art on top of the stains in complementary colors. Given the style that every little section is different, I think my added art would look like it's intended.

Those thick cloth straps are very difficult (or even impossible) to get clean. I would probably dump it in the with white Ivory dish soap, rub straight Ivory into the spots, and then scrub the areas vigorously with a soft nail brush - rinse and repeat over and over. I don't know if that will remove the stains but it might them lighter and less noticable.
