For surface scratches you can use Minwax stain markers. Dab the scratches with the marker and use your finger to blend. For deeper scratches you can use Minwax Blend Fil pencils. For real deep scratches you can use Minwax wood putty. All come in different stain colors
Try Mr. Clean Magic Erasers first. Rub in the direction of the wood grain. Then color the scratches with furniture repair markets. They are in various browns and a black. Permanent markers work fine; you just need wood shades. Use 2-3 different markers to better match the color you have. If there are any deep scratches, fill them with wood filler (sawdust and glue), and color when the filler is dry. After a couple of days, clean the floor with your usual cleaner and treatment made for manufactured floors. Best wishes ☺️
Thanks. I will pick up materials and give this a try.
