Stain removal help, Patent Leather purse.

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone has any bright ideas on how to remove these stains from my pink patent leather purse? I think the purse has been up against an aveeno hand cream in my bag which has transferred some of its print onto the leather.

I only got it for Christmas and I’m really sad to have damaged it, I’ve got a matching card holder too, which was a lovely gift!

So far I’ve tried;

  • Generic baby wipe.
  • 70% Isopropanol Alchohol wipe.
  • Another kind of strong alcohol/disinfectant wipe at work.
  • Hair spray.
  • A very tiny amount of 100% Acetone nail remover on an inconspicuous area using a cotton bud (expected this to damage the purse further, but it actually didn’t).
  • Normal acetone polish remover.
  • Some aftershave (Dior Sauvage in case you were interested 🤣).

None of this has worked thus far. Anything else that I may not have thought of?

I don’t really want to try a magic eraser as they’re abrasive and likely to damage the finish of the purse.

Thank you :)

Micellar water may do it
