Service Types and Specific Notes

* It is important to understand that variations in the base material’s condition can impact the final outcome of our service. As such, we do not accept demands for flawless perfection or engage in addressing nitpicking concerns. We strive to deliver the best possible results within the realistic constraints of the material’s existing condition.

Cleaning Limitations

Effectiveness: The effectiveness of cleaning services depends on the type of stain and how long it has been present on the material.
Realistic Expectations: We diligently strive to reduce or remove stains, but we must clarify that complete removal cannot always be guaranteed. This is especially true for stains caused by interior glue oxidation, which can result in a yellowish discoloration. Such stains are often resistant to cleaning processes and may not be completely removable.
Customer Guidance: We encourage our customers to have realistic expectations, as some stains may prove persistently resistant despite our best efforts.

Odor Removal Treatment

Effectiveness: Leather odor removal is a stubborn issue. The initial treatment typically reduces the odor by 60-70%.
Continuous Maintenance: Continuous deodorizing maintenance every 3-6 months is necessary until the odor is completely eliminated.
Dependence on Specific Problems: The effectiveness of odor removal depends on the specific problem causing the smell.
Limitations: Complete odor removal may not be possible, especially when the smell has permeated throughout all the fibers of the leather.
Service Integration: Odor removal service is different from cleaning service, and both must be performed together. Choosing only one service may result in suboptimal outcomes.

Color Restoration and Matching

Variations in Material Properties: Due to variations in material properties, dye batches, and aging across different production years, we cannot guarantee an exact color match but strive to achieve a close approximation.
Impact of Base Material Condition: Variations in the base material’s condition can impact the final outcome of our service.
Realistic Constraints: We strive to deliver the best possible results within the realistic constraints of the material’s existing condition.
Limitations: We do not accept demands for flawless perfection or engage in addressing nitpicking concerns.

Color Change

Reference Image: The image provided is for reference only. The base color of the bag will affect the final appearance of the color change. Additionally, the color in the picture may not be 100% accurate due to differences in display frequencies and the appearance of leather. While we strive to achieve the closest possible match, we do not provide any appearance guarantees.
Appearance Variations: It is important to acknowledge that the color depicted in the image may present differently when applied to the bag, given the bag’s inherent base color and appearance.

Color Transfer Issue

Effectiveness: Color transfer stains on light-toned leather can be restored, covering up to 80-90% of the stains, depending on the depth of color penetration into the leather.
Professional Recommendation: To retain the genuineness of the leather grains, it is advisable to avoid applying a substantial layer of color.

Partial Replacement Notice

Two-Tone Appearance: Please be aware that partial replacement may result in a two-tone appearance due to differences between the new and old materials used.
Material Variance: This variance can be noticeable, especially when materials from different production batches or with varying degrees of wear and aging are used side by side.
Customer Expectation: Customers should anticipate that the replaced section might not exactly match the existing material in color and texture.

Mold and Oxidation Warranty Exclusion

Prevention Guidelines: To prevent mold and oxidation, do not reuse old dust bags or boxes, and avoid placing your leather items back into humid or poorly aired locations. Regular use of these items helps preserve their condition.
Warranty Limitation: Please note that our warranty does not cover any recurrence of mold or oxidation issues caused by improper storage or care after servicing.
Policy Rationale: This policy reflects the preventable nature of these issues.

Care and Warranty Information for Oil Edge Area

- - Storage Guidelines: To ensure the longevity of the oil edge area on your leather products, it is crucial to avoid storage in high-temperature environments. High heat can cause the oil edges of the leather to melt, potentially causing them to stick to other parts of the item.
  - Warranty Limitation: Please note that any damage to the oil edges due to improper storage, especially if it recurs after restoration, is not covered under warranty.
  - Policy Rationale: This exclusion stems from the preventable nature of the issue, which is directly linked to improper storage practices.

Patent Leather Color Restoration Process and Policy

*It is important to understand that variations in the base material’s condition can impact the final outcome of our services. As such, we do not accept demands for flawless perfection or engage in addressing nitpicking concerns. We strive to deliver the best possible results within the realistic constraints of the material’s existing condition.

Requests Only a Guideline:

We highly value the color preferences expressed by our customers for the restoration of their items. These preferences serve as a guideline for our initial assessment but do not determine the final outcome.

Specialist Underlying Color Evaluation:

– Approximately 99% of patent leather is prone to oxidation over time, particularly in vintage models, making the initial color evaluation challenging. Our specialists will identify and evaluate the most intact or concealed underlying base that has not yet oxidized as the guide color for the item.

– The chosen color for restoration will be the one closest to this underlying color, as determined through our expert assessment. Given the nature of vintage models, achieving 100% color accuracy is not always possible.

– The final color solution also accounts for the aging and oxidation effects on the material. Due to the feasibility based on professional evaluation, there may be discrepancies between the actual outcomes and customer expectations. Therefore, the final decision must be based on professional standards and expertise.

No Objections to Final Outcome:

– We do not accept objections to the final outcome of the color restoration. All decisions regarding the color will follow what is realistically achievable, based on professional standards rather than specific requests or depicted colors in pictures. Customers must understand and agree to this policy before

proceeding with the service. If there is any hesitance or disagreement with this approach, we advise against proceeding with the restoration.

Sensitivity of Patent Leather

Patent leather is an especially sensitive material that is highly susceptible to environmental conditions. At Reeluxs, we guarantee that each product is handled with care. However, due to the inherent characteristics of patent leather, issues such as oxidation and color transfer may occur.

Inherent Issues with Patent Leather:

● Oxidation: Oxidation is a natural reaction that occurs when exposed to air under normal environmental conditions, which may lead to changes in color and texture.
● Color Transfer: Patent leather can absorb dyes from other materials, especially in high humidity environments or when in contact with dark fabrics, making color transfer likely.
Disclaimer:
Reeluxs is not liable for issues caused by inherent material defects of patent leather, such as oxidation and color transfer. These issues are generally considered uncontrollable factors, closely related to the material’s default properties and external environmental conditions.
Please note that any damage caused by exposure to chemical substances is also not covered under warranty. Chemicals can cause irreversible harm to the material, including but not limited to color changes and structural damage to the material.

Metal Hardware Disclaimer

Polishing Services:

Purpose: Effectively removes rust, surface dullness, and oxidation from metal hardware.
Limitations: Surface Improvement Only: Polishing effectively removes rust, surface dullness, and oxidation but cannot address deeper issues such as scratches and tarnish.
Exposure of Base Metal: Polishing alone may also expose the base color of the hardware, revealing the underlying tone. This is particularly notable in bronze and steel-based hardware that has been covered with gold or white gold plating.

24k Gold Re-Plating:

Full Re-Plating Requirement: To restore the original shine and gold tone, a complete 24k gold re-plating service is necessary. This service ensures uniformity and maintains quality, as partial re-plating is not feasible.

Disclaimer:

External Damage: Damage from external exposure, including scratches or abrasions from daily use, is not covered under the warranty.
Tarnish and Wear and Tear: Natural tarnishing and general wear and tear, which are typical effects of aging and use, are also excluded from coverage.

Metal Hardware DisclaimerCharacteristics of Black Re-Plating

Black Plating Durability Notice

Durability: Black plating on metal hardware is less durable and tends to wear off more quickly compared to more robust plating options like 24k gold plating. This reduced durability is due to the inherent characteristics of the plating material.
Maintenance Limitations: No current method significantly extends the lifespan of black plating.
Customer Understanding: It is important for customers to understand that the limitations associated with black plating stem from design choices, not the quality of our service.
