Cleaning suede seat?

[charlie55]

I got my saddle through yesturday and there's a couple of marks on the black suede seat and one on the knee roll, any ideas on how to clean it without ruining it? x

A brief google search tells me that the best way to remove marks from suede is to gently rub them away with a pencil eraser.

There is a suede block which you can get, they used to be sold by Bryant and May ? if I remember corectly, you may find one in a shoe shop, repair shop, not as severe as a wire brush.

Is anyone else actually going to see these marks when you are sitting on the saddle? If not, do not waste any more time worrying about them. In any case, if the saddle fits the horse, what are a couple of marks? If you are that worried, try a rubber eraser (as suggested previously) or the suede cleaner for shoes.
