shoe polish on leather bags is, obviously, a big no-no because it can rub off on clothing. enter....black wood polish! the color stays on the leather so you will be streak-free at the end of the day. it can easily hide superficial scratches and scuff marks. plus, it is fairly cheap at 150 pesos. one container should last you a long time. i tested it on a black vintage coach binocular bag with great result.
apply in circular motion. less is more.
buff lightly with soft cotton rag for subtle sheen.
it has a very strong shoe polish-like smell. let the bag sit for a few hours before using.
check for color transfer.
verdict? after a long day of thrift shopping, the color just got even better!
psssst, you may use this trick on your worn-out leather couch, too!
