Anyone, how can I get out a scuff that an idiot made on my seat during an oil change?? It looks like the mechanic may have had a screwdriver in his back pockedt and then sat in the driver's seat. The scuff is about 5'' long and has "lifted" the leather. This is on my new 07 camry se, so ANY advice is greatly appreciated!!

Heating it up with a hair dryer can help smooth out wrinkles in leather, but I'm not sure about scratches.

Hey 1BADYOT,

The scuff may be to deep to fully repair. Try a small amount of leather conditioner. This can help with the top layer scuff, but anything under that probably will not come out.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

I would say the place that changed your oil should pay to have your seat repaired. What this at the dealer????
