Possibly some of those marks were caused by picking up boxes or bags off the passenger seat, Gene. Maybe?

I'm planning to use a product like Gliptone which is a two stage process; clean and condition, then the second stage is finish with a wipe-over of the anilene dye [to match of course].

The dye preferentially soaks into the damaged surface areas, and you wipe off the excess that just sits on the tanned surfaces.

I think it is pretty good, if a tad expensive. If it does a good job, I'll do a photo report.
