hi guys! this thread is amazing, i love seeing old bags turning into new "right off the boutique" like bags.
i'm looking for a vintage LV montsouris and i recently found one for a good price but it has a big stain at the bottom, so i was wondering if there's an easy way to get rid of it before i make any purchase.
thanks in advance

I had some success using a damp Magic Eraser to get rid of a small grease stain on my bucket bag. It did leave the vachetta lighter in that area though.

Did you get your bag back yet? I can’t wait to see the result. I just bought one and can’t wait for it to arrive. It seems like a great, practical bag.

Its here!! I will pick up later on in the week and post more pictures. Cant wait to pick up : )

This is a whole lot of work! Your patience and perseverance is admirable. The bag looks great now!

It sure takes a lot of patience. But its all worth it after the process.

Thanks for sharing! This post had me go for a bucket bag in need of tlc to do a black trim! So modern like the neonoe out now, and a classic bag! Love it! Do you mind sharing what you used on top of the black dye? Thanks

Hi dear! I just order my leather dye from amazon. Fiebings has a good collection including color sealants. Hope this helps
