Pigmented (Two-Tone) - Problem with chair- Pakideh

>>> Something was sprayed on this chair and removed the color. Unknown, just showed up. How would you repair? I'm sending a swatch for color match.

Almost all finishes that have a secondary coloring they are not as durable as those of the monotone type.
Secondary coloring are easily rub-off, or removed with solutions that is either highly alkaline and or with solvent contents. The armrest-missing coloring is probably by body oil, grease and sweat contamination that weakens with constant friction rubs and the drips by accidental forgotten solutions spills often from ammonia contents window or glass cleaning overspray.

Solution to the problem is a color touch-up of the missing color, if we can get the color closed (there is still a difference in freshness or color intensity between faded and fresh new color application). Option is strip existing secondary coloring all together with Stripper-2.3, Adhesor-73 a rub-on and cleaning off excess prior to color coating.
A translucent coloring effect using Antique-27 system will produce a finer quality effect to maintain the value of the leather finishing.

Looking forward to your color sample to determine what finishes is best suited for this problem. A larger sample will be more accurate to assess the overall fashion coloring for the non-monotone types.

Tips:
Note that secondary colored leather finishes usually has a higher luster level than those of micro-pigmented or semi-aniline mono-tone finishes - because of its "translucency" effect!
