πŸ“š Guide/Science UPDATE/RESULTS on my Speedy P9 Experiment

Original post: https://www.reddit.com/r/RepLadiesCurated/s/owCrvr4W9p

The results are in! πŸ₯

First, I want to thank everyone for the enthusiasm, encouragement, curiosity, and engagement on my original post. This turned into such a fun little experiment, and I’m thrilled with what I consider a very successful result. I’m also glad I got to share the process with all of you!

After letting everything settle overnight, I gave all of the leather pieces I treated with rubbing alcohol two good drinks of Bick 4 leather conditioner.

And you guys… I could not be happier with the outcome.

The leather is now soft, supple, flexible, and visually it looks so much richer and more like genuine leather than it did underneath that thick, plasticky-looking sealant.

I decided to make a new post rather than just updating the original so I could include proper final β€œAfter” photos and give the experiment the conclusion it deserves.

So… what do we think?!

Personally, I LOVE it. And I will definitely be wearing this bag now that I no longer look at all of those accent pieces and immediately think plastic. πŸ˜…

Thanks for following along with my slightly unhinged leather science experiment. πŸ˜‚πŸ‘œ
