First scratch on my metallic lamb!

Breathe, I know how you feel but it will more than likely buff out. I would use the soft polishing cloth that came with your bag and a small amount of Cadillac leather conditioner and gently rub in a circular motion.
Got a scratch on the base of my gaby as well. Managed to buff it out with my fingers by rubbing lightly. A cloth and conditioner could probably work better!
A Chanel SA told me and demonstrated on my wallet to take a pencil eraser (pink one) and lightly buff out in small circular motions. It worked like a charm. I also just use clean fingers and buff in a circular motion, which will also work, but not as effectively as the eraser.
Check my video. Easy fix
Anna, will that work on metallic lambskin? Will it rub off the metallic "coating"?
I say leave it. “Buffing” is nothing more than taking out material. You don’t want to buff everytime you have a scratch as you will thin the color and leather. Leave it and don’t worry about it. I have so many scratches on lamb but it’s part of the beauty.
Cant really speak for Chanel metallic but I have the pearly lotus lady dior (and maybe the 2 brands have similar technique in producing metallic lamb?). Anyway i scratched it a couple lf times and managed to buff them off with Collonil leather lotion without damaging the metallic layer.
I’d suggest very very gentle circular motion. If you want to be safe, just dont use any lotion. Sometimes the natural oil from your skin is enough. Good luck!
