Koch-Chemie × COLOURLOCK COLOURLOCK "Scratch Away" special product for removing light surface scratches in leather 1000ml

COLOURLOCK Scratch Away — scratch remover for smooth leather

What does COLOURLOCK Scratch Away do? — The special cleaner smooths and polishes light scratches, scuffs and pale rub marks on smooth leather without adding any colour, bringing back the natural surface.

COLOURLOCK Scratch Away is the hands-on fix for light scratches, surface scuffs and pale wear marks on pigmented smooth leather. Instead of laying down colour or filler, Scratch Away works through a finely tuned polishing and smoothing process: it gently levels the top leather layer, so light rub damage visibly fades away. Ideal for car leather, furniture, bags, shoes and every kind of smooth leather with the usual signs of wear.

• Removes light scratches & scuffs – No re-colouring, an improvement you can see straight away.
• Smooths the surface – Knocks back pale rub marks with targeted micro-polishing.
• Quick & easy to use – Perfect for bolsters, steering wheels, furniture edges & accessories.

How it works & the smoothing technology

Scratch Away uses fine micro-abrasives and nourishing additives that level the very top leather coating just a touch, without touching the colour layer. That's how light scratches, pale shiny spots or rub marks from clothing, friction or daily use disappear. The effect isn't about colour — it's about controlled surface correction. The product shines where the colour layer is still intact but the leather looks tired.

How to use it, application & best practices

Before you start, the leather should be clean and fully dry. You put a little Scratch Away on a soft cloth and work it gently into the damaged spot with circular motions. The polishing effect kicks in right away and the surface gets visibly smoother and more even. If you need to, run over it again until the rub marks are gone or clearly reduced. To finish, it's worth caring for or sealing the leather with Leather Shield to lock in the result.

Results, where to use it & the limits of the product

After treatment the leather looks more even, smoother and fresher. Scratch Away is a great fit for car seats, furniture, bags, shoes and all pigmented smooth leather. It is not a filler and won't replace a colour repair on deep scratches or damage. The cleaner works best on surface rub marks, light scuffs and friction marks — but not on dyed-through cuts or material loss.
