Thanks, Roger. It's just one non-removable seat cushion on a love seat.
That white stuff is from a pillow inadvertently placed there.
There is a lot of lint and the texture is rougher, and sticky, of course, than the rest of the couch.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Here are the instructions for solving your Bicast sticky problems.
Instruction
Wet Preparation:
1. Protect floor with plastic covering from overspray and drips prior to stripping accumulated soiling.
2. Shake the Degreaser-2.2 to gel prior to use.
3. Transfer to the Eraser-4 on the sponge side for normal cleaning and the crepe side for an extra scrub.
4. Apply with agitation onto the leather finish to remove surface soiling.
5. Suspended soiling is extracted with a lint-free towel or cleaning sponge until towel shows clean.
6. Spray Acidifier-2.0, agitate with Eraser-4 and extract until towel shows clean again.
7. When dry, sand surface roughness and ensure free of foreign material with 2000-grit sandpaper.
8. Speed dry with hair dryer, free of residue and is ready for topcoat application.
Refinishing:
1. Crosslinker-25 10% is added into the BicastTop-76G to control existing stickiness. Empty the entire 7gm of Crosslinker-25 into the 70ml half filled bottle of BicastTop-76G and stir or swill it well. Once the topcoat is cross-linked, it is best to used within 8 hours, otherwise it will be cured hard and be useless.
2. Apply by foam brush lightly to avoid streaks or use soft varnishing brushes for streaks free result or airbrushing for professional result.
3. Steaks are corrected by fine 2000-grit sanding when dry.
4. Use a hair dryer for speed drying in-between coats to satisfaction.
5. Let it overnight cure before non-stick protection.
Non-Stick Protection:
1. Protector-B+ is applied evenly with either foam brush or paper towel and is ready for use when dry.
2. For routine application, a paper towel is recommended to simultaneously extract soiling.
