Cat Scratches on Thomas Payne Dark Brown Furniture
We have the dark brown Thomas Payne furniture in our trailer. The previous owner obviously had a cat that scratched it up and went through to the white fibers under the vinyl, didn't notice the damage until after purchased. Any suggestions as to a product that may fix this? We love this trailer and don't want to use a sub par product that will result in a repair more noticeable than the scratches.
Thank you for any suggestions

Once the surface layer of the furniture is damaged, any repairs would be tough. The material is called "bonded leather" and it is not nearly as durable as real leather. If you call Lippert customer service at 574-537-8900, they may offer you a discount on replacement furniture.

You could look for a local repair guy also.
There is usually someone that may even do mobile service.Steve- Inventory Manager at Tom Schaeffer's RV, Shoemakersville, PA www.tomschaeffers.com

Check with some of your local auto dealerships. We use a local guy to do our used car inventory reconditioning. He does wonders on vinyl and leather. Surely your local dealerships have someone as well.

Try a dark brown marker to hide the white under fibers. Won't repair the surface damage but may hide it. Another coloring option is one of the wood furniture stain pens. The bonded leather material was prevalent in the 14-16 model years of many RV manufacturers because it's cheap so if it's a later model year it might be a repairable material like vinyl.
