Gather Necessary Supplies

Before attempting to clean up a varnish stain, it’s important to have the proper supplies on hand. Start by gathering the following: white vinegar, a soft-bristled brush, a cloth, and a vacuum cleaner.

Clean With Vinegar

Once you have the supplies, you can start cleaning. Begin by wiping the area with a cloth soaked in vinegar. This should dissolve some of varnish and make it easier to clean. Once the surface has been wiped down, use the brush to scrub spot until the stain is removed.

Vacuum Cracks and Crevices

After cleaning surface, be sure to vacuum any cracks and crevices in the handbag. This will help ensure no remaining particles of varnish are left behind.

Finish With a Cloth

Once the vacuuming is complete, you can finish the job by wiping down the handbag with a clean cloth. This will help remove any remaining varnish residue and restore the handbag to its original state.

Keep It Clean

Finally, remember to be careful when storing or carrying your handbag. Keep it away from potential sources of varnish and other spills. By being proactive and taking preventive measures, you can help keep your handbag looking new for years to come.
