Red leather scuffs

Got some nasty scuffs on the driver's seat (where everyone has) and I was just wondering what is the best way to tackle this.
Did a search on the forum and here http://www.z4-forum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=45990&start=15 it seems like he got brilliant results with the liquid leather stuff.

I do wonder however if that applies to red leather (LEDER OREGON/SCHWARZ / TRAUMROT (LAT5)) which is apparently a pain to match.
Has anyone tried it on that particular type of leather with decent results?

I got onto these trim repair places and they said the seat can be fully sprayed but would need to do both seats so they match and then possible the door panels too so that it is perfect.
If that's the only way then I am considering replacing all the leather for new, won't cost too much extra than respraying everything.

Ideally if I can source a piece of Oregon Dream Red (I think thats the English name) I can replace the bolster side, but no idea where to buy it by the meter.
Any thoughts?

Hopefully that works, on my phone at the moment.

I also sent them a small sample of my leather to get a 100% match...
 
The company I work for manufactures leather coatings and some of the Furniture clinic franchisees are clients, its a simple process, clean the leather, colour it then seal in with clear topcoat, colour matching won't be an issue :thumbsup:
 
I have gotten in contact with furniture clinic and they have told me that there are 3 different types of finish to the Oregon Dream Red leather, matte, satin, and semi-matte.`
Now I have no idea which I have so I am hoping that someone with this type of leather (LAT5) that have done this before and can help me out.
