Frustration with scratches on my Black Leatherette interior

I have a silver 01'1.8TQMS.I love the way the black interior looks with the silver, but my leatherette gets rub off marks and scratches all the time. Is there any leatherette cleaner or special chemical I can use to get rid of them and protect it from happening again?

Thanks,
Matt Sanes

chemicals probably not...

the leatherette getting scratched has probably forever changed the surface of the leather. There is a method of warming leather and steady rubbing in Lexol that will resude the appearance of scratched leather.
