I got a bunch of rhino line sprayed on the work van and I sprayed it with contact cleaner... Not eye contacts but electrical contacts and it rubbed right off so I'm sure it could get normal paint off lol

Start with the least corrosive/damaging first. Soaking it in leather conditioner may just loosen it up enough to come off, depends how it has bonded.

Some gel coats take a while to dry so you may have to work fast. If its already cured then youll have to try soaking the leather underneath to make it release it.

Gel Coat gets pretty tough when cured. Eventually it may take goo gone, or even a butty knife, I hate to say it. Just make sure you test every chemical in an inconspicuous area!

I had something that said okay for vinyl/leather and when I tested it, it lifted the color right out of my leather.
