How can I get a denim stain out of my leather purse?
dave asked:
My denim rubbed off onto my leather Michael Kors purse! It is the luggage color, and I don’t want any stain removers to also remove the color of the purse. Is there anything I can do?

You have what is known as dye transfer. Some dyes are very strong especially in jeans
Most over the counter leather cleaners will not be strong enough to deal with this – the longer the dye remains on the surface of the leather the further it will move into the finishes on the leather and once this has happened it becomes more difficult to get out.
Using solvents etc may be needed but these will damage the finish on the leather and these processes are best left to a qualified technician who will be able to recolour/refinish as necessary.
(do not try solvents or DIY colouring kits yourself as these generally do not work)
Generally for dye transfer the following link may help

Using a leather protector is always a good idea on leather and particularly on pale colours that suffer from these type of problems.
Using household products such as WD40, hairspray, bleach, rubbing alcohol, baby wipes, solvents etc should be avoided as there is no guarantee that they will not do more damage which will then be much more costly to fix.
Hope this helps
