Thanks again for the compliments

So the "Strong Cleaner" was all it took to clean the marks on the leather? Did you steam the leather as well or would that damage it?

I'm going to pick up a Magic Eraser today!

Also, does a steam cleaner vacuum up the steam/moisture like a carpet cleaner?

The Woolite mixture also works nicely on leather, especially in conjunction with an Eraser Pad. Be cautious though with those Eraser Pads as they can be rather abrasive on delicate surfaces such as plastics, faux wood trim, etc.

A steamer can also vacuum (certain units) but I don't care for those as they have a smaller tank and not as much power as a non-vacuum unit.

I will post up a link where to get a great steamer for a great price as soon as I talk with the manufacturer.
