Hello,
I recently noticed some scuff marks on our leather recliner. I believe this was caused by my daughter's small folding chair when she placed it on top of the recliner and the legs scuffed up the right arm (see attached photo). I used some leather wipes to try and buff out the marks but was unable to remove them. Any idea on the best way to repair this?

Thanks!

This marks is a color lost issue and further wiping or buffing will worsen it.

The color type has to be match up for a refinishing.

Do you have a sample for color matching?

I don't have a physical sample of the leather, but this is the recliner we have: https://www.levinfurniture.com/product/item/living-room/seating/recliners-rockers/park-avenue-recliner-scotch/1977895/1973903 I could try contacting the furniture store or manufacturing company to see if I can get an exact color if that's what I'd need.

Its most probably a two-tone finish you see from this link:

Thanks for the link. I was reviewing the product description, it looks like I'd need to spray this onto the recliner? Would I be able to use a small brush and touch up where the marks are?

Yes, your leather type is the imitation "sauvage" or rather created just like creating a wall that look like natural marble.
This are artistic work, and can use any tools and techniques to blend in - so no rules.

This scuff marks look bad. I hope you can cure it soon.
