Maintenance Tips: Saving Leather Handbags From an Ink Stain

Article Category: Fashion

Author Name: chickie maxwell

Trying to remove ink stains from leather handbags can be a big pain. Cleaning away the ink with the use of products for ink removal is usually ineffective. This fact can be compounded by the time that has passed since the ink stained the leather. It is therefore paramount that should inks stain the leather, efforts to remove them should be made as quickly as possible.

Basically, inks are dyes. They are chemicals that soak and penetrate the material they are put into. In the case of leather handbags, their effect is to soak their pigment into the leather and change its coloration. Because they have a soaking effect on the leather finish, they get more stubborn and harder to eliminate from the leather, and the longer they are left there. A scarier proposition is if the ink even spreads to the surrounding leather and the stain gets larger. The aniline style of leather is a particular type of leather that is more absorbent than others. Once ink has stained this kind of leather, it is better abandon all hope of removing it rather than hope in vain.

The more stubborn the ink, the stronger the chemicals needed to remove it. Unfortunately, these ink-removing products also have an effect on the leather pigment and its finish. Thus, it is usually the case that once the ink is removed, the original leather finish and color need to again be restored.

Pigmented leather handbags that are stained with ink may benefit from ink removers. Make sure that the ink is still as fresh as possible to obtain best results. If one's leather bags have a light color (especially white), and there are children in the house, be sure to have such ink removers always within convenient reach.

For old ink stains that have been neglected, stronger solvents may do the trick. However, a means to restore the original pigmentation and color must also be sought. It may be wise to simply take it to people more knowledgeable about such things. There are plenty of services that offer restoration services. Using removing solvents may only worsen the original problem. It will probably help to keep in mind the disaster created by Mr. Bean in his first movie, when he used paint thinner to restore an expensive painting. Leather handbags may not be as expensive or culturally valuable, but they are valued possessions nevertheless. Treating problems may sometimes be best left to the professionals.

There are also leather protection products available in the market which one can use. These are preventive measures, acting like a sort of insulating material so that leather is not easily affected by stains. They make stain marks easier to remove and clean effectively without any hassles and side effects.

It is usually not recommended to use the more common household stain- or ink-removing products. Firstly, they often do not work. Secondly, they are more likely to cause even more damage to the material. Such damage possibly cannot be repaired even by professional technicians. Products that should not be used and can cause more damage include hairsprays, nail polish removers, milk, wet ones or baby wipes, toothpaste, and furniture and wood polish.
