I'm very tempted to bid on this gorgeous vintage Bally on Ebay, but the interior of the bag is flaking as in the photo.
I've tried asking a few purse cleaning / repair shops if this could be fixed, but all of them replied something along the lines of 'we'll need you to bring the bag in before we can do an assessment and give you a quote'.
Any idea if there's anything that can be done to stop the flaking and smooth out the material? I'm ok with the existing patches but I don't think I can live with the flaking becoming worse.
