>>> Hello, I got this vintage shearling, the wool inside is very soft and fluffy, it feels great, it smells a bit, but not too bad..
The wool face is cleaned with Woolskin Cleaner-5.5,
https://leatherdoctor.com/woolskin-cleaner-5-5/
this product has built-in sanitizer to reduce wool's natural odor when wet and rinsed with Woolskin Rinse-4.0.
https://leatherdoctor.com/woolskin-rinse-4-0/
If odor unknown smell is still present then it then Odor Cleaner-4.5
https://leatherdoctor.com/leather-odor-cleaner-4-5/
helps to generally deodorize. But if it is musty from mold, then you will need Mold Killer-3.6

>>> However the outside of the coat is in a bad state, there is a lot of little dots all over the outside/ flesh side of the leather, including inside the pockets, it looks like it might have a nappalan coat that was damaged by mold or some chemical spray?
Since suede has been shown, use the suede system for cleaning with Suede Cleaner-4.5
https://leatherdoctor.com/suede-cleaner-4-5/ and Suede Rinse-2.3
https://leatherdoctor.com/suede-rinse-2-3/
>>> Under these dots I can see the suede texture. Is it possible to fix it somehow?
Fixing or coating the suede into a nappalan (smooth) will require a 'clear' Aniline Dye-76
https://leatherdoctor.com/aniline-leather-dye-76/
and topcoat with Aniline-21W

>>> Is it possible to restore the coating?
Yes!
>>> Is it possible to remove the coating and keep the suede underneath?
Yes!
