Ceiling leather patch?
I found a spot on the "leather" ceiling that looks like it might have been patched...it was kind of gummy and somewhat sticky. When I touched it, it got worse. Anyone familiar with what this is? Thx.

Re: Ceiling leather patch?
Not familiar with it, but is it near the head? Almost looks like a burn from a curling iron. There is a product called Tear-Aid that is pretty good. Would improve the look but still have a seam. I have used it for small tear in my Strataglass and it handles stretch and humidity real well. I think it comes in white and clear. My ceiling vinyl is white, and the shade is pretty close.

It's above the bed opposite side of the aft cabin from the head. At first it looked like small clump, then I touched it and it stretched. It is more of an elastic stretch than a tear. I feel like if I mask it off, i might be able to come at it with a razor blade and shave off the edge skin. Not sure if I'm that bold yet.

Re: Ceiling leather patch?
Yea, that's what I would do. Trim up with a razor blade, throw a patch on it. Funny no one else has chimed in yet.
