I just feel like every time I try to clean or fix something, I end up wrecking it. So leaving well enough alone is what I now go with. I tried to clean vachetta handles and ended up having to have them replaced because I made them worse.

It’s not spray but I have issue with these pen marks inside my Rosalie wallet… any solution to erase them?
Be careful, but I've heard these work but I haven't had to try yet. I would press and dab though vs rub. With the magic eraser rub lightly and keep checking to make sure all is ok. Check as you go with any you try. Hopefully one of these 3 will work. PLEASE BE CAREFUL
Rubbing Alcohol
WD-40

I wouldn't try any of these. Permanent damage is guaranteed.
Yes better to be safe I suppose. The ink marks can be an eye sore but at least it's not on the exterior
I have no idea how it got there… I have a toddler though… sigh. Love this wallet and rose interior … sob. Oh well it is inside ….Those must have been very tiny pens that fit a Rosalie
Come on, this changes everything! I'd leave it like that, this is the cutest thing
Years ago a Lady on the forum asked us about her Neverfull. It was in excellent condition, but her toddler did draw on the handles with a blue pen. She wanted to get the handles replaced by Vuitton.
I told her that this is actually amazing and I would wear it proudly. The kids grow so fast, and the bag will quickly become a memento of those wonderful first years together. Also that is the first art piece by her child, if Kusama can draw on Vuitton, so can the kids. And if you think about it, this is the ultimate Mom flex when you don't take your Vuitton too seriously and let your kids play with them.
Be careful! WD-40 is a lubricant. It's very greasy and is used for loosening rusted bolts, squeaky hinges, things like that. It is suppose to break up the ink so you can wipe and lift off the ink but I never tried this. Because your leather on your wallet is coated and i don't believe your leather porous so that may work in your favor but BE CAREFUL! You know before you try, let me try it on a piece of scrap vachetta leather. Vachetta is porous as it is raw so the result won't be the same as your leather but let me test it out. Im sure the vachetta will drink up the grease and possibly the ink too but let me test it on my scrap vachetta first.
Now you have me curious! Hahaha! I'll try it first. I don't want you to mess up your wallet! I'll take pics and show you sometime today!

Well...I tried it with the WD-40....and nope! Lol. Vachetta is probably not the best leather to use, but that's the only scrap leather I had. The WD just soaked in quick into the vachetta. The ink did not lift from the vachetta. The vachetta became darker due to the WD-40 obviously. Anyway, now we know...well, now we know FOR SURE, at least on vachetta! Lol
