We just bought a used cream leather sofa and once we got it home we noticed a lot of one cushion is light red/pink.
Not sure what it is but read one forum where your products worked.

When you receive this Kit Sa5.di. . .

The first thing you do is doing a test on the heaviest stain areas.

The picture #5 above would be a good place to do a test.

Test:

Cut out a dime size paper rag, apply Prep-7.7 to it, place it one an isolated spot (preferably on a horizontal level), and leave it there for 24 hrs.

Take a picture of the before and after and send it to me please to post for you or do it yourself, we will monitor from there.

What you will expect to see is that the stain will be suspended and being absorb by the paper rag.

Continue to reapply a new paper cut out rag with Prep-7.7 on the same spot and let it dwell for another 24hrs.

Check for swelling of the pigment if any after each inspection, by blotting with the paper rag, if so clean-off Prep-7.7 with Cleaner-3.8 to remove the sticky residue and follows with a soaking application of the Acidifier-2.0 for 24hrs to neutralize the swelling before proceeding if necessary.
