Condition, Positives, Flaws, Items to Note: Important - this is a project bag. Full disclosure:
๐ค purchased on thredup for $75+tax
๐ค the bag was painted so thredup offered return
๐ค I was certain that if I returned, the bag would be sold again with the paint still on. decided to rescue.
๐ค I cleaned up most of the paint with a deglazer and acetone - more below
Any repairs, cleaning/conditioning products used, dunking, etc:
๐ค acetone and deglazer to remove paint
๐ค dunked to remove access paint (and dye?)
๐ค conditioned with bick4
๐ค light layer of blackrock
๐ค buffed with microfiber cloth and horsehair brush (repeated conditioning and buffing three times with one week interval)
The leather absorbs conditioner now. I had to dunk because the pores were clogged before. The leather feels softer and smoother now. I feel that it can go to someone with more rehab experience to be fully restored to its former glory.
All pictures were taken outdoors in natural light. Please let me know if you have any questions.
