You should do an updated video on these bags since its been a year, so we can see how they patina and hold up with the products you have used over time! thanks for the videos, super helpful!
Would love an updated video on the wear of the bags you treated in these videos! Just purchased a new speedy 25 b in damier azur (after seeing your and Jerusha's videos!) and would love to protect it. Thanks !
Hi BJ. I know this is an old video however I was wondering if the apple guard effected the patina and in general the look of the leather. Thanks a lot I really enjoy your videos!
Hello Bj,I've just finished watching all 3 parts,very helpful.I'm thinking to try these products,I'll check with Amazone.Thank you very very much for your time.LVoe.
Can any brand rain & stain protection be used or would you suggest just using the Apple Guard? Love your vids! You are always concise and thorough when doing your reviews. Keep them coming!
hello bj, do u recommend lovin my bags or the apple rain guard do they protect the same? or do you think both protection products are needed....basically i guess i'm asking does the lovin my bags protect again weather/rain? just ordered a new bag and wanted to treat the vachetta = thanks so much love all ur videos
Hello there, I love your videos - very helpful. I'm very keen to know if I can use the Apple waterproofing spray on the vachetta of my brand new and unused LV Speedy B 25 in Monogram. I plan to order the LMB kit soon but can't wait to use the bag on my birthday next week. I'm worried the leather might become darker permanently, unnaturally speeding the patina process. Would it be suitable for fresh vachetta or one that has started to color? should I use conditioner first before spraying? Thank U
Hi Bj! I've noticed that the website says that you need to do the pre-treatment for new bags before using the protection. But is it okay to just start off with the protection like you did? Ps. I LOVE all your videos - thank you so much for sharing :-) Cheers!
Hi! Just wondering how the waterproofing on a new bag has effected the patina process over time? I just ordered it on amazon, and wanted to know before I spray it on a new vachetta strap.
So how do they look now? Do you prefer one or the other after continued use? I'm working on a similar video just using the loving my bags would it be ok if I tagged your video. It's so informative.
bjtaylor02 I agree. The loving my bags takes several days with drying now with the pretreatment then the treatment then the conditioner each saying to dry overnight now yikes
Hi BJ, With LMB projects and Apple Gard, does the vachetta patina evenly? Does it mean that once it is treated you don't have to worry about having water drops and/or lotion on the vachetta? Thanks!! I Your videos have always been very helpful.
Hey BJ, I just got a sully and am wondering would u recommend spraying the strap and piping with the apple guard, or using the lovin my bags? It is brand new? So is the apple guard good enough? Is it possible to use the lovin my bags and then the apple guard or u wouldn't recommend combining the two? Thanks
To treat or not to treat is a personal decision. For myself, I choose to treat my bags. As for using both LMB and Apple Garde, I have no experience on that. Thus far, I have used one or the other.
Hi bjtaylor, I saw your review on your Noe drawstring bag. I have one as a gift from my cousin it 26 year old in excellent condition. On the leather it's has water spots and marks. can I use Apple Care and Apple Garde to remove the spots.
I have a Speedy 30 in momo and used Mulberry's recommended "Collonil" water proof spay on the handles. I have to be honest, I didn't cover the bag or the gold parts and all is still perfect, so I don't think it will hurt any part of the bag. I use this on all my Mulberry bags and it's great.
Will it have the same effect if I just spray it on a cloth then wipe it on the straps? I have a brand new LV Sully and I am scared of using anything on the handle but at the same time want to protect it.
Why dont you invest in a Strapdiva ?!! Fantastic item which covers straps and helps them falling off your shoulder. Ideal for the area where bags are usually carried. totally protects them and really high quality item. Im not even in the US and sent for one. Use it on my neverfull straps. Wonderful item!!
FYI Louis Vuitton does not have solid brass hardware it is a steel dipped in a brass cover. I found this out when I purchased a handbag-wallet-key pouch--I use it only on special nights birthday anv about 5 times And notice thing where turning a steel color.took it back to LV store where I purchased. They replace button on wallet. I think they should tell people
Tacara Guice I used LMB on the Artsy handle but because of the braid, it can create spots between the braid. I recommend AppleGarde for the Artsy handle.

Can you do a new video to show current color change of your vachetta leather after using loving my bags products?
How's the Vachetta doing after the protection spray? Any updates after use?

I just cleaned and conditioned a preloved vintage Petit Noe and was wondering if I can spray Apple Guard to protect from future water spots?? Thanks!!

Love ur videos thnk u. Does the leather patina if it is treated with Apple Guard?

Sure :). I lean toward the Apple garde - quicker, easier to use. But I still use the Lovin My Bags.
bjtaylor02 I agree. The loving my bags takes several days with drying now with the pretreatment then the treatment then the conditioner each saying to dry overnight now yikes

Hi BJ. Can I ask you. After you sprayed the vachetta leather with Apple Garde does the water glide off the leather?
Hi bjtaylor, I saw your review on your Noe drawstring bag. I have one as a gift from my cousin it 26 year old in excellent condition. On the leather it's has water spots and marks. can I use Apple Care and Apple Garde to remove the spots.
I have only used Apple Garde to protect. I have not used any of the Apple care products, so I cannot comment on the cleaning ability.
Okay thanks
Hi, if you use these products, does it prevent the leather from oxidizing and getting darker?
I have a Speedy 30 in momo and used Mulberry's recommended "Collonil" water proof spay on the handles. I have to be honest, I didn't cover the bag or the gold parts and all is still perfect, so I don't think it will hurt any part of the bag. I use this on all my Mulberry bags and it's great.
Hi did the appleguard protect your bag from rain and did it stop your bag from patin I mean getting darker over time thank you
What would you suggest I pretreat a brand new Pale pink pebbled leather Kate Spade Satchel? With Lovin My Bags or Apple Garde?
+Carol Rowland I am not familiar with Kate Spade leathers. Perhaps check the Kate Spade Forum on the Purse Forum: forum.purseblog.com/kate-spade/
Will it have the same effect if I just spray it on a cloth then wipe it on the straps? I have a brand new LV Sully and I am scared of using anything on the handle but at the same time want to protect it.

Hi BJ do you have an update on your totally a year after you protected it with apple guard or LMB?
Deanna Matto Actually it's been two years since I protected the Totally. I will do a video on it. :)
+bjtaylor02 did you do the video yet?
LxNaw N No, I haven't done that video yet. It is on the list to show the bags and how they have aged. :)
FYI Louis Vuitton does not have solid brass hardware it is a steel dipped in a brass cover. I found this out when I purchased a handbag-wallet-key pouch--I use it only on special nights birthday anv about 5 times
And notice thing where turning a steel color.took it back to LV store where I purchased. They replace button on wallet. I think they should tell people
Excelentes videos, gracias por compartir :)
What about the artsy mm brand new handle thanks
Tacara Guice I used LMB on the Artsy handle but because of the braid, it can create spots between the braid. I recommend AppleGarde for the Artsy handle.
