HOW TO CLEAN YOUR LEATHER BAG QUICKLY & EASILY Designer Bags LE MILL INDIA

INTRODUCTION ●

Knowing how to clean a leather handbag without ruining it is a useful life hack

●

Whether you've invested in a designer bags or you’ve picked up a steal on the high street, leather bags are designed to stand the test of time

●

While you might love the idea of taking your bag to a specialist to be pampered and cleaned every month, for many of us, that's not very realistic

●

But there are many steps you can take at home to to clean your designer bag in detail

FOR A QUICK CLEAN UP

●

Start by cleaning the designer bag inside and outside, creating a foam with the cleaning solution, and massaging it into the bag

●

Leave to dry for a couple of minutes before applying the protection cream.

Take extra care with the handles, corners, and frequently touched areas

●

This process takes no more than 15 minutes and could save you a fortune on restoration treatment in the future

REMOVING LIQUID STAINS •

Start by blotting the stained area as soon as possible with a clean, dry cloth or tissue.

You want to absorb as much of the liquid as possible

•

Once you have removed the excess liquid, you should then blot the stained area with a damp cloth or tissue using warm water only

•

Start at the outside of the stain and work inwards. This will stop the stain from spreading outwards. If you have one of the Handbag Care Kits, you should clean the stained area with it

•

As before, you should then proceed to dab the stained area with a dry cloth or tissue to absorb any left-over water or cleaner

•

Never rub the stained area as this can cause the stain to spread

•

Your designer bag is best left to dry in a warm room. Do not apply heat directly to the stained area as this can set the stain

•

If any staining remains once dried, you can contact a bag cleaning specialist

REMOVING REMOVE ODOURS

•

Removing bacteria is the first step to removing stubborn odours, so the designer bag needs to be cleaned inside and outside

•

Get into all pockets to clear out the bacteria that will be causing the smell

•

Focus on the handles and places oils may have been absorbed - these can be a cause of odours

•

Once cleaned, finish with protection cream on the designer bag. On fabrics, a fabric freshening spray will help

DO YOU NEED TO PROTECT YOUR LEATHER DESIGNER HANDBAG?

•

Prevention is the place to start when thinking about a bag's condition

•

It’s necessary to clean and protect your designer bag regularly

•

Leather is a skin and needs its own kind of skincare regime too! Its recommended that you protect your designer bag from day one

•

Using helpful tools and tricks to avoid signs of wear will also keep your bag looking new for as long as possible

•

Bag pillows are also a great way to keep your bags structured while being stored

•

And a handbag hook will allow you to avoid placing your bag on

HOW OFTEN YOU SHOULD CLEAN YOUR LEATHER BAG?

•

Perhaps not surprisingly, the regularity with which you need to clean your designer bag depends on how often you use it.

•

If you use the designer bag every day you should do this every two to three months.

•

If it is more of a weekend bag or when you are heading out for special occasions, every six to nine months will be enough to keep your item protected."
