Evening ladies. After sprucing up a black NVT Bays last year for my daughter I thought I could do with another challenge!! Here is one very sorry looking Oak Bayswater..

Looking forward to seeing how she turns out. What's the plan for sprucing her up?

I have been brave and put her in the washing machine on a silk wash, they don't seem to have a leather option!
I will then go from there..

I have washed oak mitzy in washing machine it looked a treat when dry.ive washed a bays in the sink and it was a lot cleaner,it takes a few days to dry out,and LOADS of moisturising cream the cream didn't seem to have any effect but after 2or3 days it seemed to soften it up.in the end it was worth it .good luck I look forward to the pics☺
