Spent $80 on a fancy leather repair kit and ruined my couch

Bought one of those all-in-one leather repair kits from Amazon because my cat scratched up the arm of my couch. Followed the instructions exactly, mixed the color match stuff, and it came out looking like a skin graft from a different animal. The texture is all wrong and it's shinier than the rest of the couch. Now I'm wondering if I should just toss the whole thing or try to sand it down and start over. Anyone else have better luck with a specific brand or trick for blending?

Wait, you actually tried sanding down your couch?

Kelly, did you check what the fabric tag said first?

Sand it down and try again. Just use a finer grit next time.
