“Fantastic start to finish”
Breathe new life into your everyday bag with leather and colour restoration. Using specialist hand mixed and matched leather paint, we restore the exterior leather of your camera bag.
This service covers external leather and colour restoration of camera crossbody bags from any brand or designer. For camera bags that are quilted, have exposed piping, or need to be cleaned, the price of restoration will be higher. We have additional services to re-edge straps, replace zips, create new linings or replace piping.
Texture or pattern? If your bag is quilted, an additional £105 will be added on top of your quote.
Dirty bag? If your bag needs to be cleaned, an additional £95 will be added on top of your quote.
Exposed piping? If the piping on your bag is exposed or very scuffed, an additional £105 will be added on top of your quote.
Faded bag? We hand mix colour for as close as possible match to an unfaded area of the bag. Use and UV exposure may mean that this colour differs to that of a newly bought item.
Texture? We must use pigment to restore the colour of your bag, as opposed to the original dye colouring method. Although your bag will retain its luxury feel, the texture may be slightly different to the original.
We prepare for restoration by wiping down leather and removing dust and superficial dirt. We identify a part of your bag where the colour is as close to the original as possible and hand mix and match specialist leather paint according to this. Work begins by filling and restoring scuffs, tears or scrapes which require texture restoration. Once complete, pigment is applied in thin layers all over the bag, being careful to not paint over stitching. When the pigment has dried, a protective coating is applied to protect the newly applied colour. The finish will be adjusted to match the shine of the original item.
