On the Cleaner bottle it says "not to be used on dyed leather" but says it's good for purses, yet most purses are dyed, so, should I use it or not?

I used it on navy blue chairs and it was fine. I don't think there are blue cows. However try it on the bottom first to make sure..

I use the Lexol leather cleaner on all leathers. I have used it on sofas, recliners, and saddles without a problem, just good results!!!!!!!!

I used number #1and highly recommend using it as it is a waterproofer. My kattee bag soaked it right up I waited a couple of weeks and treated it again. It will darken the leather but thought it just added to the appearance of the bag. The number 2 and 3 are used to maintain your leather goods. It just keeps it from drying out. The number 1 will leave a slightly waxy residue so you want to buff your bag well, I recommend a good micro fiber cloth. This is a 3 step system, even though they sell other numbers getting that first one on is the most important. Hope this helps.

I used this to spray all over a leather chair (that had been treated/failed by even Stink Free and another product). Didn't damage/discolor the leather at all. Of course, I'm not sure I really cared since it's probably headed to the dumpster anyway... not sure I can ever lounge in it, just knowing... ;-). Of course, YMMV, and test it first ;-)

I think that you need to use a good leather cleaner and I am not saying that Honey Leather cleaner is not a good one but if after trying that one first, I would try others until I had all of the stain removed before I would us the Leather Honey conditioner on the leather.

As with all dyed leather, the answer would be yes! It doesn't bleed a lot but you will notice some! Hope this helps.

If the fabric in question is leather/suede, which I surmise it is as water does not tend to stain fabric, it is highly doubtful. Even experienced cleaners have little if any success in removing water stains on leather products. I have had good success with this in cleaning furs and general cotton fabrics. Nonetheless, you should do a test spot and remember not to rub but rather blot and if possible have a clean cloth on the other side of the fabric when you blot.

I typically use it on clothing. It is the best stuff out there for wine stains. I've never had a problem, but I don't let it dry on the fabric.

Hi Deanna, this is what I used it for. I have a very expensive leather sofa that looked warn. This does a great job of cleaning and softening the leather (leaves sort of a natural sheen). I use it on my sofa every six months or so. From now on, this is the only product I will use on dyed leather. It will darken natural leather. Love the stuff.

I bought it for worn spots on leather seats. It seems like it wipes off rather easy. It is similar to shoe polish that you mix and try to match the leather color. Shoe polish would be better for shoes/boots, I would think.

I used it on my shoes. While there isn't a residue when rubbed in and then polished it does change the colour and it is viscious when it leaks from the bottle.

It does. I use it to protect the natural vachetta leather on my LV bags. There are still a few marks over time since that kind of leather isn't dyed or coated. Still, it keeps it protected, and a lot cleaner than it would otherwise be. And if you're using it on leather that is dyed or coated, there shouldn't be a problem at all.

the colors of dye are not liquid they are more like a paste. Unless the surface of the leather is actually split or peeling you may want to try something else.

Whenever in doubt, test it on a small part first. Wait a day and see if it fades or rubs off. Color is not a property of the leather but of the dye used. The product itself is great on all the leather items I've used it on. I doubt if you will have a problem but caution if the dyed leather was manufactured outside US.

I would not use this on leather, I believe this would be too strong and could cause damage to the dye and surface. I have used a Magic Wand sponge with good success removing ink from leather along with general surface dirt and also Meguiars leather cleaner and conditioner on seats as well. Although I like the remover, I would be concern toward using it on this.

Possibly. I bought it to remove a stain caused by my blue jeans rubbing on my tan leather cross body bag and it didn't really remove it. Blue jean dye is synthetic indigo whereas shoe polish is a mix of natural and synthetic materials, including naphtha, turpentine, dyes, and gum arabic. Both substances have been rubbed into the grain of the leather over time, repeatedly, and from my experience, the leather milk only took off surface staining and didn't go deep into the grain. I would give it a 50% chance of success. Hope that helps.

It is better to use the cleaner first. The conditioner suggest you clean first with a damp cloth mixed with mild soap and warm water. We found the leather nova leather cleaner works better and faster.

Since many leather-bound books are bound with leather that has been dyed or treated by some form of preservative (old or new), I would NOT use this product on my books, as it will react with most treated/dyed leathers resulting in a substantial degree of darkening or mottling. I used it on a few undyed knife sheaths with no problem, but they were neither old nor dyed. I would ask a librarian or book dearer, who may readily have an answer or at least be able to direct you to someone with more reliable advice.
