How can i clean a pink suede bag?

This question is aimed more at the forum girlies because i hope there aren't many men who have pink suede bags, but anyway...

Ann has got a nice pink suede bag that i bought her... only problem is that she carried it when wearing a new pair of jeans so the dye has rubbed onto the bag. Problem is the only washing instructions on the bag basically say don't do anything apart from dab it with a damp sponge, and somehow i don't think this is going to get it off.

Has anyone got any idea how i can the marks off?

Take it down your local dry cleaners, they'll probably be able to remove it.

Re: How can i clean a pink suede bag?

A while back I wore new jeans on a friends white leather couch! I left a beautiful bum print on it! Im positive she got it out by using furniture cleaner for leather couches, I would imagine that would work alterntatively i found this:
http://www.repair-home.com/Cleaning_...ing_Suede.html
"Maybe the sofa or jacket you’re lamenting is made not of leather, but of suede. If this is the case, arm yourself with the following:
  • A bath towel
  • A pencil eraser
  • A suede brush
  • White vinegar
  • Dry cloth
First, rub the suede with a bath towel. Then, remove any dry stains with a pencil eraser. Next, brush over the suede with a suede brush. After that, apply a small bit of white vinegar to the stains, and use the cloth to scrub the stains away. Finally, let the stains air-dry.

Note that if you’re using vinegar to clean suede shoes, the shoes may have a bit of a vinegar odor for a little while after.

Keep in mind, though, that suede is often expensive, so if you’re apprehensive about applying vinegar to your suede or by attempting to clean suede on your own, then seek the advice of a professional specialized in cleaning suede.

Of course, the best form of cleaning is prevention. Spray suede and leather with a leather protection spray to keep it stain-free. As well, ensure that all your suede and leather products are professionally cleaned every two years."
