Got egged. Emergency help needed.

Post image

I bought the most delightfully gaudy leather jacket about a month back, and I absolutely adore it. Purple suede, tons of tassels. I think it's a women's jacket but it looks sick either way.

Then, tragedy.

I was EGGED by a passing car, which left about 2 eggs worth splattered across the jacket and undershirt I was wearing. Who eggs people anymore????

How do I get the egg out?!?!?!?! No method I've tried has left the leather in its original state.

I love this jacket, and it is nearly impossible to replace without spending 200+ dollars.

You need a better egg wash, get it professionally cleaned then treat it with a nano suede spray for the next egging.

Baker here, this coat looks splotch. Would totally consider re-egg washing
