scuffed kitchen worktop - I am delighted

DH put in our kitchen over 6 years ago now.
The worktops we bought from Wicks and the finish is a dark grey sort of leather look.
Over the years on the area which has the most use, the deep grey has gone a lighter shade and this has bothered me for some time.
The other day, foolishly, there were some marks on the top which I couldn't wipe off so used the washing up sponge on the green side to gently try to remove them. All this did was, make it worse, so now there was extra damage to what there was already.
I couldn't see any solution to this other than new worktops, but DH came up with an answer.
He used Brasso liquid and rubbed and rubbed it into the surface then buffed it up.
I am soooo pleased, it has brought it up like new.
