They appear to be your average shoe scuff marks. I used power clean 3:1, let it soak a bit then wiped with mf. They lightened. Then i tried it at full strength and agitated with a bristle brush. The marks will not come out.

Any ideas?

Magic Eraser, but do it lightly.

Never used Power Clean, but if it is the equivalent of Meg's APC then I'm surprised. Goof Off and Goo Gone may help here if your still trying diff. things. Also, 0000 Steel wool also used vey lighty with the Goo Gone should have an affect.

This is one of the few areas that I use a Magic Eraser along with APC, but use the eraser lightly.

Thanks Guys, I'll give the magic eraser a go when I get off work and post the results.

I'll tell you my secret lol I use blue scotch-Brite non-Scratch pad it doesn't scratch and 1z deep plastic cleaner. the combo works so great I can get it clean 98% of the time. You can also use the deep plastic cleaner on treated leather works better than any other cleaner I have ever used.

If it is a scratch mark on that plastic, then I am not sure of anything that it will take it off. I've seen a lot times in some of my customer cars, we can make it look better with the black in the center but that's just about it. I would use magic sponge, maybe goo off like other fellow detailed mentioned here. Good luck.

Majic Erasers work well as long as they are not scratches in the plastic. Some plastics have a bit of a pattern and need a little more work.

I tried Goo Gone on something similar based on tips from another thread. It worked great.

The images from the original poster are not showing. Just ordered a Flex XC3401 and I have some light scratches on my door sill. Would magic eraser apply here also? I know that Wolfgang has a aluminum kit but it's a little pricey.
