What is the patina champ method? Just letting them sunbathe?

https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/the-patina-champ-is-here.815007/

Yes, whateve, pretty much sunbathing but also wiping down the vachetta. I used this method successfully on my Speedy 30 monogram when I first bought it in 2014. I let it sit for a few days in the sunshine, an hour at a time. Then I wiped down the vachetta with a lightly dampened linen towel (a white sock is used in the patina champ thread). The next day I "polished" the leather with my linen towel. I had a couple of raindrops fall on my bag plus my last water bottle spill but my Speedy recovered just fine.

Sounds good. I have a Coach bag with vachetta handles. Maybe I should do this with it.

I was so good during the Coach sale, did not buy anything. I was so good during Macy’s VIP sale, did not buy anything. Then......

Mr. Doodle was the first toy I ever own so when my SA told me the Mr. Doodle dinky inventory was under 25, I folded and ordered! I am bad, goodbye Jon Snow, I await my punishment:sad:
Some bags are totally worth giving up the eye candy! My Turnlock Dylan arrives tomorrow but I am having trouble letting go of the black Cherry Rogue...
 
Wait, what? You bought it?
No, but I keep fondling it, and I had the 25% off Simon Mall discount but decided to use it on Dr. Doodle. I’m hoping it’s still around for the holidays so I can justify buying it then. I know it’s very limited inventory at Coach but they are still some at some of the department stores, keeping my fingers crossed.
