Because bambino is teething, nothing is safe - including the rail on his crib. I don't mind the marks on the crib so much as I am worried that he is ingesting some not-too-safe products (lead paint or varnish or what not). I looked around and didn't really like the plastic covers, and I am not adept at sewing, so I came up with a solution for a rail guard/protector.
Just take a blanket (we used one that came with the layette that was more decorative than practical), fold in half lengthwise, and sew the ends together. Then, sew a ribbon on each end. Sew the corresponding other half of the ribbon where you folded the blanket in half, tie the ribbons together - and voila! - you have a rail guard. No muss, no fuss!
Took the baby a little while to figure out how to climb up with the blanket, but figured it out (of course) in no time at all.
