here's how i restored a vintage gucci two-way bag with heavily flawed lining. the lining was totally unusable when i received this bag. flaky, sticky, malodorous, and just a complete mess. my initial thought was to cut the lining and be done with it. i have plenty of time today, however, so i decided to give it a wash instead. the bag also required a bit of reshaping and conditioning.
vintage gucci bag before.
use a large-sized nylon bristle brush.
remove remaining sticky residue with detergent bar.
rinse, rinse, rinse.
dry in filtered sunlight.
after a good dose of leather conditioner.
after shots of lining.
