Gee, hope the magic eraser didn't cause permanent abrasion-type damage. Gotta be careful with those things....

Those magic erasers are pretty abrasive and a lot of people don't realize just how abrasive they are. This is why on the box it says not to use them on painted surfaces. Personally, I stopped using them when I realized how abrasive they were.

They're made from melamine foam. Indespensable cleaning tool, but the usual caveats apply.

Pics please?

"Haze"...could you be referring to the potential situation where you basically sanded down/away the vinyl's texture permanently?
Or perhaps you are describing a situation where the eraser left residue? In which case, a general APC diluted 10:1 will suffice to remove it...
