Default how to clean paint on q5 seat transfered from an loui vuitton bag

my wife's q5 seat has some sign of brown paint that I couldn't find a way to clean or erase it. The prime suspect is her LV bag she puts there everyday when driving to work. any help? Thanks.

WOAH! can't be a real LV bag as they cost upwards of $1k - paying for real high quality leather that shouldn't be crocking as you are saying (crocking is the color transfer from the bag to the seat) and if it is I would hope she would bring it back to the vendor/store for a refund or replacement as she simply didn't get what she paid for there!!
maybe its the metal 'feet' not the bag leather itself?

Seek professional assistance in the cleaning as you cannot know what the brown stain/spots are (in regards to the chemical makeup of the stain be it paint, ink, stain, rust, etc.) and you do NOT want to ruin the seat leather itself with harsh chemicals

GOOD LUCK!!

yes, the bag was real, it was me who bought it from a LV store. Looking back, it could only be that bag because she didn't put anything there everyday except that bag. The stain was along the bottom of the seat back where the bag rest again it.

You sure it was a real LV store?

I'm with loscoz. Her bag shouldn't be transferring and I'd take it back as well.
