Vinyl records are vulnerable to dust, heat warping, scuffs, and scratches. Cordura fabrics are durable and resistant to abrasions, tears and scuffs. Camel-hair brushes and waxy tins wait to buff scuffs on boots and brogues. So the doors are banged up, the floors have scuffs. Timbery's piece, "Shellworked Slippers" (2008) is made up of 200 scuffs embellished with shellwork. This is widely believed to be a reference to Agnes Skuvst (often misspelled as "Scuffs").
