Lounge leather grey (nearly white) help

Did a daft thing and got satellite lounge leather in very pale grey
Looks fantastic in the showroom :)
Car looked too dark in black,
Only 2k in and I'm beginning to have second thoughts:(

Any products to help it keeping looking clean

Tried Zymol so far, think it's ok for general wipe over, but not sure it's man enough to tackle stubborn marks

Ordered this for ours, not arrived yet. definately going to try to keep regular tabs on it with a cleaner!
been browsing detailingworld and 'Dr Leather' seems to get lots of recommendations... might invest in some!
It's weird, I have Satellite Grey leather and it seems to get much more dirty than any other car I've had with pale leather. I haven't worked out why yet. I have a particular pair of jeans (my favourite ones of course!) which I won't wear in my MINI any more as they turn the seat blue even when I haven't been out in the rain. These jeans didn't do this on my last car which had beige leather, those seats stayed perfectly clean :|
this is exactly our experience, they need cleaning more than once a week - complete nightmare. Tried scotchguard but seemed to make it even worse! they can get serious dye transfer in just one journey! No such issues on our cream sofas or previous 5 series leather.
