Might be an oil coating on it (its so it cant get dirty and dirt just brushes off), in which case you might wanna see how much you can peel off, then rub the area with dish soap on the rough side of a sponge, then paint it again. Pleather is basically fancy plastic, so paint might just not stick to it

You also want to soften the leather up before painting, so use dubbin and wait a week or so before painting.
