Because my pants are too tight or because my leg is too short, or BOTH, I scuffed my seat with my boot the other day. Twice. They won't come out. I tried leather (saddle) soap, leather polish. Even hand soap. It won't come out. Any home remedies.

yamaha sells a seat leather care kit that i purchased several years ago, only to find that it's nothing more than black cream shoe polish, however it does take care of the boot marks and does a nice job on the boots too.

you must be sure and buff it out well, or risk the black transfer to your pants.

Try some armour all. Mink oil will sometimes help but again here you need to wipe it well. I had some leather care stuff for my seats in the convertible that worked pretty well on scuffs. Sheep skin cover? :confused24:

Is it leather or vinyl ? If it is vinyl loctite sells a vinyl repair kit. If it is leather go to a shoe repair shop and get some leather dye. After it drys follow up with some lexol sold at most saddle tach shops.

I find Armorall slippery and greasy , I found some stuff called renew/protect and its a 2 part process and does not leave a greasy residue on the motorcyclr seat and its safe to use on tires. ( I was always afraid of using armorall as I was afraid of it making the tires slip on the pavement)

The Renew/Protect products I use now are called Blak and its a blackening compound, then you seal it with Gloz (if you want shiny finish) or Satin if you want a satin finish.

It works great and I only have to use it twice a summer as it seems to last a long time. Here are some you tube vids about it.
