    I reckon that would be difficult to cover up without doing a much larger section. You can apply a filler to the leather - this is some applied to light cracks

    You'd then need need to colour that section - I use Dynamix dyes kits, but google scuffmaster and they might have a suitable kit. You'd get away without doing a larger area if the colour match is good, and the rest can be cleaned up ok. It won't just polish up though.
