Inside door handles
The most scratches are in door handle cutouts... Caused by fingernails.
How do you folks get these out?

I used Meguiars Ultimate Polish on a hex hand applicator. I jammed it under the handle and scrubbed back and forth and up and down.
Took about 10-15 minutes each.

Re: Inside door handles
Much like Riff, I use an old paint stick, a cut piece of an old, now retired orange LC pad wrapped in a MF towel. Depending on the level of marring and the paint hardness/softness, i alter my polish product accordingly. This technique helps me get into the area and not cut too hard. I say that but i will admit to breaking the paint stick at times due to exerted pressure!
I will also admit...it's a "one step" effort for me. Trust me, it WILL get all scratched up again! Plus, like Riff said, it doesn't take too long to clean up.

Re: Inside door handles
I use a compound or polish and a MF towel wrapped around my finger tip and scrub away! Usually works great

If i have an old pad (LC Orange usually) i will cut it up into pieces and use it there. works like a charm.

Same here, and I noticed that if you continue in those areas and also make sure you apply a good LSP there the scratches don't come back as quickly...or maybe it's just because I've learned not to let my nails rub against that area when I open the door

Re: Inside door handles
Magic eracer will remove most of it in seconds. Then just use polish on a hand applicator to finish it up.
