They used this in an episode of wheeler Dealers and the finish was like new. It's warranted too.

I happen to have leather sofas as well as a long history of a man who gets oil on every surface of leather car seats lol.

The bottles of gliptone shampoo and conditioner I bought cleaned everything off.., and left the leather in better condition than it was new lol. They seem to even deal with minor scuff marks (don't mention three year olds and felt tip pens / permanent markers to me) too, but I doubt they'd do much for actual scratches.  Gliptone do have other stuff that will deal with scratches tho.

I can vouch for the Gliptone stuff, used to use it on my Maxima and Legend.

We have leather couches at home and my Bullmastiff insists on climbing on them.  We don't mind this when we put a sheet down for her but sometimes she beats us to it and scratches the surface. The Liquid Leather, if allowed to soak in for a while then rubbed in pretty much disguises the scratch so you wouldn't notice it. Smells great too.

Wont help scratches, but I use baby wipes to clean and condition the mig leather!! Inexpensive, nice smell and cleans the leather up well!  It also feeds the leather, not drying it out or cracking it!!
