Water Spots on Suede Knee Rolls

[Equestrian24]

When I was bringing my saddle with a cover on it in the barn during a downpour yesterday, some water still managed to get on the edge of one of the knee rolls and has left a water spot. It isn’t too bad and I can live with it, but is there any way to remove it? Will it just fade over time (I remember having a much smaller water spot that I can’t even find now, but this one is about quarter sized).

I actually like the suede, so I don’t want to oil over it like some people do, or replace it with leather.

Try scuffing it off with a stiff brush or a piece of sandpaper (after it’s totally dry) using really light pressure. Might have to do the whole knee roll to keep the look consistent…

Thank you, I will try that!
