We have a couple of pale leather coloured two-seaters.

One has developed several bluish patches, presumably from the clothes worn when sitting on it.

After experimenting and getting nowhere I tried hand sanitiser gel. It seemed to work too well, seeming to take off a layer of leather!

Anybody have experience of leather stains?

TIA, Alan

I've used this: https://www.uniters.com/it/en/uniter...lliliters.html on furniture and leather bags to good effect. It removed dark blue denim dye stains from a beige bag with a little elbow grease and two applications.
The company are based in Italy so it might be worth contacting them first to check they'll still deliver to GB post-Brexit.

It's pretty common to have to clean etc car leather seats. Several
companies specialise in products to do this - including supplying a
matching dye if needed. I've used Woolies for this - a very helpful small
company.
