Louis Vuitton - How to restore sheen on vachetta
Hi, first of all a big thank you to the administrators for starting this forum. My only regret is not to have found it BEFORE I took one of the recommendations I found in another site - It would have saved me some grief!
I have an old Louis Vuitton bag which I bought second-hand from the internet. It was quite cheap it's been heavily used and the handles are almost black.
I decided to clean it - taking the advice from another internet forum.The forum recommended I use an alcohol-free makeup remover wipes to clean the handle - so I went and got myself some really fancy wipes and away I went! I decided to clean only 1 handle and wait for the result. This is what happened:
The handle is still very dark and has lost its sheen.
I am at a lost at what to do now - instead of improving the situation, I just made it worse - now the handles don't match.
Please help.
I can attemp cleaning the other original handle using your advice on another post, but how to I clean and restore the sheen on this handle that I made a mistake on? I would really appreciate you advice.
Also, going back to old threads I note that you heald a 3-day workshop, are you planning anything similar in the near future? Or do you have a training video I could buy? I live in Sydney Australia.
Thank you very much.
