Michael Kors Water Stain on MK handbag :( What to do?

[twiziblond]

So, where in Colorado, it has been basically a monsoon season instead of its bone dry condition it is normally in. Because of that, my Michael Kors Hamilton (color:luggage) bag got wet and unfortunately has set in. Its not noticeable on the front, but along the bottom of the purse, the back, and the sides along the lining, it has that typical water stain look.

Are there any tips to getting the water stain out? And if there is anyone from Colorado who has a professional leather cleaning company they recommend, I am all ears! But I would like to attempt to take the water stain out first.

Is your Hamilton soft leather or saffiano leather?

I'm at a loss on this one. Usually, it's best if you use rain/stain repellent on your soft leather BEFORE using it. That way any water or rain won't soak in and cause stains. Maybe someone else will chime in who has had this problem. You can also do some searching on the internet for tips on how to get out the water stain.

So I went and bought Michael Kors leather cleaner with the intent to try to clean it. It actually worked some to my surprise. Not 100% gone, but 90% better than it was.
I was going to use that if anything as a conditioner and as a last resort before a professional cleaner was involved. So I am quite happy with how that turned out.
Thank you for trying to help!
But I also bought the rain/stain repellent so it doesn't happen again!
