cleaning scuff marks on door sill

  

dixiesothercar -> cleaning scuff marks on door sill (1/15/2007 9:24:30 AM)

My e350 has a stone interior  (real light color) and I have been unable to clean the scuff marks (from shoes) on the hard plastic trim or the soft edging. Tried soap & water, carpet cleaner, vinyl cleaner to no avail. I would appreciate any surefire solution. Also, my light color mat on the front passenger side has black greasy stains  (probably from a slovenly passenger) that don't come out with carpet cleaner.

dixiesothercar.
My interior is also light, Java, and for marks on the vinyl or plastic, I first try Simple Green with a soft bristle brush.  If that doesn't work, then Meguiars Heavy Duty Vinyl Cleaner found at autopaint supply houses.  As for the mat, I'm lazy, so I vacuum, spray the stain/grease with Shout or Spray and Wash and throw it in the washer...works for me.

OK;
I'll say it again;
I'll give you a tip; but it comes with a
WARNING!

Try:
Mr. Cleans-"Miracle Eraser"
I assure you; it WILL remove the black scuff marks,[sm=happybounce.gif]
black marks or heavy build up in your car

It does scratch somewhat so be careful.

This stuff WORKS! like nobodys business [:)]

Good Luck and let us know how it turned out

It's in Home Depot

Tried it.  Works great.   Thanks.  I had to order new floor mats to match the new-looking sills.
