Varnish stains, unfortunately, happen, and even your beloved Kate Spade bag can get them due to contact with a surface treated with varnish. If you’re looking to get them out without doing more damage, you can find multiple ways of cleaning up the mess, from sandpaper to nail polish remover, depending on the severity of the stains.
Easy Steps to Clean Varnish Stains from Your Kate Spade Bag
- Spread newspaper or a plastic sheet over your working area. You don’t want to ruin your favorite table.
- Put a few drops of mild soap and water in a sponge or soft cloth, and gently apply it onto stained area.
- Rinse off the soap with a damp cloth and then with a dry one.
- If the varnish stain persists, try rubbing it off with sandpaper or a toothbrush. But be sure not to apply too much pressure – just enough to remove the stain without ruining the coating of the bag.
- If the stain still remains, you can try using a cloth soaked with rubbing alcohol or nail polish remover.
- Once the stain is gone, make sure to wipe off any residue with a damp cloth. Let it air dry before using again.
Preventative Measures
It’s always best to take preventive measures against varnish stains before they appear. To do this, you can apply leather-protective creams which will prevent any dirt, dust or grease from sticking into your precious bag.
