Purchase a leather repair kit, available at many department stores and home improvement stores. If desired, buy the components needed to repair leather separately, but this is likely more expensive. You need leather cleaner, leather glue, leather paint, sandpaper and leather topcoat, depending on how bad the scuffs are. You also need several soft, clean cloths. Apply a small amount of leather cleaner with a soft cloth. Gently rub it in. For small scuffs, this may take care of the problem. For bigger or tougher scuffs, apply a thin layer of leather glue to the area, and allow it to dry. Use fine or extra fine sandpaper to gently rub the area. Wipe again with a clean cloth. Use a small paintbrush to apply leather paint over the scuffed area. If you're not sure what color is an exact match, contact the manufacturer of the leather item. When the paint has dried completely, apply a leather topcoat to the area.Gather the Materials

When I removed a name tag from my black leather (not suede)jacket the tag left a dull spot on the jacket, almost like it removed the finish.
