Anyone have any ideas I can try for door scuffs? Cleaning with apc did nothing so I`m guessing these are light scratches. It`s a brand new car and I`m a bit perplexed how they even happenedhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...519935982d.jpg

Try a Mr Clean magic eraser thing, lightly!
Usually we touch the doors with out shoes on the way out for some reason. If it`s a mark from a sneaker it`ll usually come off, if it`s a scratch from a leather sole shoe, not so much

Try some type of plastic trim coating such as 303 Aerospace. Anything that may darken the scratches. I’ve used Nextzett Deep Plastic Cleaner and removed things I thought were scratches, so you might try that.
I’ve had good luck removing plastic/rubber scuffs from interior plastic/trim with Stoner’s Xenit Citrus cleaner. Hard to tell if these are scratches or scuffs that can be removed. Goo Gone may be worth a shot.
Thanks guys.. The magic eraser did great and I also used a little novus plastic polish/cleaner.

I found this interesting! I wouldn`t have thought that further abrasion would make it better-not-worse, but I`m sure glad I was wrong.
Same here. I usually just cover scuffs like that with an interior protectant to darken them and make them disappear.Quote:

To me the marks looked like transfer from the sneaker to the door panel rather than scratches into the panel.
That`s why I suggested the eraser, and if you`ve tried one on that harder textured panel it`s pretty much impossible to scratch it with those sponges. The softer panels and dash/upper doors it`ll sometimes marr a little

I can`t rub some interior surfaces on our vehicles with even a soft cloth without messing them up abrasion-wise. Eh, the newest car we have is 10 years old!
Phareous- That second pic looks like there`s a discernible spot where you fixed it, like what I`d worry about...or is it just the pic?
Mooser- Seems like any plastic surface I`ve ever touched with a Magic Eraser got marred. Even for household use, I basically only use them on ceramics/etc. as the simply mar *anything and everthing* that isn`t rock-hard, at least to some extent.
