I have a light beige/off-white leather couch where the finish has been sraped off during moving- about 1"x1/2" in size. How and with what should I try to color it with?

If you use shoe polish type products it will come off on your clothes and will not last very long. You need to get a special colour matched product which is called pigment touch up from LTT. This will colour match exactly which is what is required. This product also has a finish in it wihich will replace the finish that has been removed thus leaving it like the rest of the suite.
Full instructions are always sent with the product and it is easy to use.

Try liquid shoe polish. (In Australia it's called "scuff stuff") Or you can bye shoe paint/dye, for changing the colour of shoes--that should also work. Alternatively, buy a dog, have a few kids, and in two years you will no longer remember it's original colour, OR material, and will cack yourself laughing at the thought that you ever even THOUGHT of buying an off-white leather couch, lol. Meantime--yeah--shoe paint. Any good shoe store, or shoemaker.

Go to a good leather furniture store to see if they have any products available;If it can't be repaired, get a dramatic throw and strategically "throw" it on your couch to cover the scrape.
