Soapy Liquid Stain on Suede

I just bought a tan suede jacket, I was shopping in Wal-Mart, picked up some kinda soapy cleaner product for my car, and the soapy liquid has gone on my suede coat and left a stain. I am desperate to get it out, any suggestions?

I heard maybe a pencil eraser?

If not oily stain, I'd not use just ANY eraser, but rather an ART GUM eraser, and get fairly rough with it, allowing the nap of the suede to return if it's smoothe now, which I'll bet it is. If oily, I'd get it to the leather cleaners or live with it. Oil can ruin suede and stain permanently, I hate to say. Don't use water based ANYTHING else, or you'll be unhappy with the results.

Good luck and God bless your not giving up yet by trying to take care of what He has given you.: )
