Is this good for Saffiano Leather? Just recently bought a rebacca minkoff bag and its white and the dye from my jeans are transferring to it.

I would definitely try it! Use the Apple cleaner first and be sure to follow directions closely. I have had no problems with all of my leather articles.

No, they use a stamping method which leaves a crossed hatched pattern, which by eye, you can clearly see added protection. Over long saturated periods the affect on Saffino I don't know, yet I can say if the bag is new, I wouldn't add a protectant for some time or visual wear.

The Rebecca Minkoff website suggests taking it to a leather care professional when you get stains from dyes and such things. http://www.rebeccaminkoff.com/policies/#cleaning-and-care

I used number #1and highly recommend using it as it is a waterproofer. My kattee bag soaked it right up I waited a couple of weeks and treated it again. It will darken the leather but thought it just added to the appearance of the bag. The number 2 and 3 are used to maintain your leather goods. It just keeps it from drying out. The number 1 will leave a slightly waxy residue so you want to buff your bag well, I recommend a good micro fiber cloth. This is a 3 step system, even though they sell other numbers getting that first one on is the most important. Hope this helps.

It actually depends on the leather/dye. I have used it on my Coach Legacy and Madison bags without any change. I used it on my D&B Florentine and LV bags on untreated vachetta and it did darken the leather. I hope this helps.

Based on my experience with The Ona leather bag, which is made with thick, supple leather panels which are fitted and sewn together to yield a strong but pleasent looking bag. I recommend applying a coat of Mink Oil (similar to shoe polish in a tin), to the outside of the bag. The mink oil will put a protective sheen on the leather and will make the surface of the leather feel soft. Finally, any fine leather bag which is repeatedly rubbed against abrasive surfaces will, over time, be damaged.

Hi Tony! Thanks for your question. Because this product is a cleaner and conditioner in ONE, it has only very mild cleaning properties. For jean's dye, we recommend to use our Foaming Saddle Soap, which works really well on grease, stains, and jean's dye stains. Of course, the end result always depends on how long the stains have been there and on the leather type also. Hope that helps. Take care.

If I understand the question, you are asking about clothing to leather staining. The dyes from non color fast fabrics might bleed or run onto leather when damp. Scotchgard may help, but if the chemicals used interact with the water repellant, stains would still occur. The best advice I can give is to try to recreate the circumstances where this has been a problem for you and find out how this product will work for you. Good luck!

the colors of dye are not liquid they are more like a paste. Unless the surface of the leather is actually split or peeling you may want to try something else.

The liquid is clear to my knowledge. I used it on black and brown leather. The leather looked better with conditioner than brand new leather. I havent had it long enough to answer to its longevity.

Hi, I didn't apply leather finish after dying my shoes. I watched a YouTube video and a lady dyed some rather worn shoes with a gorgeous orangish/rust dye. They turned out fabulously, and she dyed SUEDE shoes! That is what I did, only black and newish shoes. She said hers were suede, and it worked great. The package says not to dye suede, but I did anyway. I am not sorry! The color is fabulous and I just brushed them with a soft brush after they were dry. I am not doing anything else to them - mostly because they look good and they are suede. I would suggest reading the package. I don't remember afterwards applications. Sorry!

I am using it on white aneline leather. It's working well with no discoloration problems.

I used this on a light blue leather purse and it simply cleaned the dirt off without darkening the leather. Hope this helps.

This is not a dye. It is a sealer and is applied after the leather has been dyed and has cured. It adds no color when applied. It seals in the color that has been applied during the dyeing process.

I tried it on ink mark on the leather bag. It did lighten after we applied it few times. Actually the manufacturer called me and refunded me the amount since it didn't completely remove it. Please use the right type of cloth to wipe it as fiber cloth can further damage the bag. The good thing is it didn't spoil the finish. I am not sure about old oil stain and I haven't not used any other cleaning product.

I agree with Capt. Kevin. I have never had it "ruin" anything so if it were my Coach bag, I would not hesitate to try it, but just to be safe... do as the good Capt. suggests and try an inconspicuous area first. Is the bag a suede type of leather -- open pored? If so, I would *not* try it as any liquid will only absorb further into that type of leather. Get a cleaner specifically for suede leather. But if it is a smooth leather, I would definitely use Meguiars.

I think it might depend on the type of finish your bag has on it now.It does dry a little leaving the most luxurious feel.I love it and would nothesitate to use it on any bag of mine.It would not drastically change the color but may deepen it a little.

Leather new worked great for me on a red fake leather chair. I had some puncture areas from keys in the pockets, some tears, etc. Just need to be sure you get the area tightly closed when you put the repair compounds on. I also had a tan chair in the basement.....no tears, just worn areas that I put the coloring on...looks great now.

I don't know. Sounds like the leather was untreated for awhile. This is basically a protectant and it does make the product shine and cleans it. Might want to ask a dealer if this restores leather to original color. Good luck
