Default Taa leather discolor.

I need help!!!!!! PLEASE>>>>>>>>>>>

Is there any product to color tan leather? I'll explain.

I had a pen mark on my front seat. I tried leather cleaner but it did not work. Then stupid me, I tried to rub it with alcohol.

Now I have a quarter size discolored circle (brown color).


Thanks.

Look on the Auto Care and Detailing Forum on this site - lots experts to be found there. Try a Google search on "spot remover", leather. There are several products that might be helpful. Also, for a safe alternative, you might try a teaspoon of dry Diatomaceous Earth (DE35, available at organic garden shops and pool and aquarium supply houses) with a few drops of alcohol on the spot to absorb the ink as it is released by the leather. It will take some careful work and a number of applications. If you use alcohol on leather, be sure to condition it thoroughly when you have gotten the stain out. Solvents will remove natural oils from leather leaving it stiff and dry. Good luck!
