Treat scuff marks on leather bags with a baking soda paste and polish. Apply water and baking soda with a small white cloth. Wipe the black marks gently. Let the purse air-dry for three to five minutes. Apply matching colored polish completely to cover the stained area. Do not use wax polish; it is too heavy for handbags.

Clean suede Fendi bags with a suede stone, brush or eraser. For light dust trapped in the nap of the suede, apply the stone or eraser in a circular motion. A stiff brush made for suede can repair scuffs. If water or anything wet spills onto your suede bag, take the bag to a repair shop that specializes in treating suede bags.

Tips & Warnings
Always test any fabric- or leather-cleaning solution on the inside flap or any hidden part of the handbag before treating a visible part of the bag.
Never apply heat from a blow dryer to a purse after cleaning. The reside from the stain may be invisible to the naked eye. The spot may be permanently set by the heat.
