Hi, I jumped into the deep end of the rehab pool a little over a year ago. I actually did my first two real rehabs on a tabac/putty convertable clutch and a light brown classic hobo. Mainly because they were water stained messes I found for ten bucks each at a flea market. I was completely comfortable with any thing happening because of the minimal investment. It was love at first sight for the neutral palette. I have purchased two Brits already in very very good condition, an Oliver and Bancroft that I did not dunk. They didn’t need it. I bought other Brits with various degrees of stains and a few camel bags also. Dunked them all. Do not feel the dunking conditioning changed anything for the worse.
Do you have tester bag, that if anything went less than you hoped, you won’t feel crushed?? It can be a great confidence booster. And I gently scrub my dunks with a flat bristle soft Colgate toothbrush!
