Question
I have a black leather chair,that I over sprayed with sun block,now I have white spots on it,do you have any ideas on how to remove the spots?

Answer
Hmmm this is by no means my area of expertise. But I do have a few suggestions to try, of course I'd suggest trying it underneath or somewhere that will not show.

1. Contact the manufacturer of the chair (if possible) to inquire about cleaning.

2. WD-40 sprayed on a gentle cloth and wiped on the spots.

3. Cover the spots with a black leather repair cream

good luck with you chair!
