How to Clean a Scuff Mark From Bonded Leather

Bonded leather is a synthetic leather made from leather pieces and polyurethane, so it looks and feels like leather. This leather is used to make affordable and attractive furniture for the home. Like all leather, bonded leather is susceptible to scuff marks, particularly as it ages. You don't need to send the furniture out for repairs if the scuff marks are minor. Fix them at home, if you have a steady hand and eye for detail.

      Shake the dye in the bottle and pour some into a disposable container, then dip a sponge paintbrush into it. Paint the dye onto the scuffed surface. Let it dry according to the manufacturer's instructions.
