Can you get your polished granite finished changed to leathered?

We built our new house in 2012, we went with a polished black pearl granite in our kitchen. While we feel it is beautiful, it is a maintenance nightmare! It shows every little smudge and fingerprint! We have 5 kids so that's a lot of fingerprints! Somehow we were only focusing on staining with the granite and never even thought about the everyday maintenance! Live and learn! My question is, does anyone know if it is possible to have the finished changed, we'd love to have the "leathered finish" on our island which takes the most abuse! I thought I read a while back that someone had theirs changed in place. All the granite yards I've spoken to, said its cheaper to just replace. My husband says no way! Lol! I even thought about having someone take it off rehone it and bring it back! Any advice? Anyone know a miracle product that keeps the fingerprints off? Any and all advice appreciated!!!
