Leather Scuff Repair

I have some scuffs and nicks in the leather seats on my E55 and I'm wondering if something like shoe color or another product could be used to stain those scuffs to make them invisible or inconspicuous. Has anyone found anything that works for the charcoal colored seats in our cars?

Nice, thanks! Any idea which color code matches our charcoal colored leather interior? Has anyone in here used this for leather scuffs and what were your impressions?

Checked my window sticker and the factory interior color code is '251 - Charcoal' which Leatherique doesn't offer :-( Will need to look for another source or a close match.

You will be very happy....I am not sure if you use the Leatherique oil & cleaner, but it works wonders on our seats too....

I bought the Leatherique kit including the correct AMG charcoal dye, but haven't used any of it yet. Need to get motivated. When I do, I'm confident the results will be satisfactory.
