So iv got an issue.gloss paint on my leather and Fabric mix sofa. It's had time to dry solid is my sofa fu**d or can it still be removed my insurer is sending someone out to clean it in a weeks time! Will they be able to fix it or is this just a waste of time ?

I'm pretty sure it's safe bud. They can fix up leather pretty well. Even if they need to cut out a patch of fabric they can match up superbly. Think of it a little like what a french polisher can do with a piece of wooden furniture.

It's pretty sweet how well they can blend it. 😊

I should imagine that'll be the best bet mate but honestly... I've seen it done. My mother managed to slice a hole in the arm of her leather sofa. About 3-4 inches long. A guy came out, matched up the colour from a kind of sample book thing you see in the shops.
He basically patched it up. It really is pretty amazing what they can do. Once the new piece aged a little you can't even tell.

Worst case scenario the can completely remove the damaged piece and re-upholster it.

Throw a google search for it. 👍

If its enamel paint, you're pretty much fucked. You might be able to scrape some off, but it won't be everything.

Call a cleaner or try to find a chemical called liquid dry cleaner. It may work use to clean carpets and couches. That's what I would try first.

👎👎👎 it's not a case of cleaning the affected area, it's a case of fixing it. To say it's fucked is bad advice lol

Well with it being oil based and the length of time it's been there I think my insurance if they can't clean / fix it will have to replace it right ?
