Sand out the Scuffs
When you have leather seats in your car, one thing you mustn’t do at any cost and that is be careless. A shoe or a bag can really mess up the leather seats if the passengers aren’t careless. But don’t worry as even if a slight damage has been done, it doesn’t mean that it can’t be remedied.

Then apply some aerosol dye gently with a sponge to match the color of your seat. Let it dry for about 10 minutes, then repeat the process. Next use a plastic palette knife to apply a leather filler product over the scuff mark.
Once you have left it to dry, sand the area again. Two coats of matching dye will be enough to blend the filling into the remaining leather.
When you’ll be done, it will be very hard to notice any scruff mark there.
Fix those minor tears
Needless to say, torn leather ruins the overall look of a vehicle. No matter how much you care for it, the absence of leather might make you hate your ride. But you need not worry in this case too as there are countless ways to restore its glory too and we will teach you some of those.
First what you got to do is apply some soapy water to the affected area and wipe it properly. Then take a good quality leather cleaner product and apply it to a scuff pad. Using that pad, apply the solution to the affected area removing any dirt or debris.
After that you can begin to heal the crack or tear yourself. A backing pad material is one great way to do it. Take a piece of that material and insert it inside the tear.

Then take some leather filler and apply it through the tear. Bring the edges of the torn area together carefully and push them to the position against the backing pad. After leaving the filler to dry for 50-60 minutes, take some more filler and make sure that no gaps are left.
Let it dry for 10 more minutes then sand it or apply some more filler to any rough areas. Finally apply a light coat of matching dye and you will notice that the cracks and tears have become totally negligible.
