Frequently Asked Questions

Will they be visible on my hardware?

They are as close to invisible as we can make them, though we would never claim they disappear entirely. Scratches are far more visible. Placement makes a big difference, so follow our fitting guide and tutorials for the most discreet result.

My bag is not listed. Can you still help?

Absolutely. Get in touch and tell us which bag you have. We'll check whether one of our existing sets is suitable or add your bag to our request list. If needed, we can also create a bespoke set using photographs of your bag's hardware.

Are they safe on my hardware?

Yes. Our protectors have been extensively tested across the hardware types we make them for. They are designed to sit over the finish, not bond to it.

Are they removable?

Yes, completely. You may notice a little adhesive residue when removing them, which is perfectly normal. Every set now includes our heart-shaped stickies to help lift away any residue. A cotton bud dipped in a little soapy water also works well.

How often should I replace them?

There is no fixed timescale, as it depends how often the bag is carried and in what conditions. As a guide, a bag used daily is best refreshed every six to twelve months, and one used occasionally every eighteen to twenty-four. Replacing them before the corners lift stops dust working underneath.

My hardware is already scratched. Is it too late?

Often not. Depending on the hardware and the depth of the marks, our protectors work well as concealers. We would not recommend them where the finish is already flaking or peeling, as the protector can lift loose finish on removal. If you are unsure, send us a photograph and we will tell you what to expect.

What is in the pack?

Enough protectors for one handbag or accessory, along with placement tabs, heart stickies and a small selection of samples chosen by our team.

How quickly will my order arrive?

Orders are dispatched within three business days. UK delivery follows shortly after, and orders to the United States typically arrive within five to eight business days once dispatched.

What if they are not right for me?

Every order is covered by our 60-day satisfaction guarantee. If they are not right, get in touch and we will put it right.

Do you ship worldwide?

Yes, we ship daily. Full shipping information is on every product page.
