    Hello,

    The only solution is to transform these degraded areas from velvet leather to smooth leather. As the repair requires the use of a repair paste, it is necessary to recolour with a pigment and not with a dye (the original colouring of the nubuck). Smooth leather and velvet can be alternated in a perfectly aesthetic way. For example if you make a smooth leather seat you have to do all the work and the same for the armrests, but for the backs you can do the bottom and not the dimensions, well think we can do a very nice job. You have salons today that are made with this in mind.

    Thank you very much.

    so if I understand correctly, if I repair and repigment, I will have a smooth leather in the degraded places.

    so I have to remove the undegraded nubuck leather in other places to have a harmonious aesthetic appearance?

    it is not easier to finish removing the nubuck degrade on the armrests so as to have a velvety appearance, and to repair the back of the smooth leather sofa (the repair surface is much smaller)?

    a sanding of the armrests can work? and it is necessary to protect the velvet well with an adapted cream?

    thank you

    Hello,

    If you can repair the armrests while keeping the velvety aspect, it is obvious that there is only the backs to transform into smooth leather, it is a good solution.
