Default Shoe Marks on Seats, what will remove them?

My ES350 has the light colored leather seats and the sides of the seats (plastic part) has black marks caused by my shoes.

Does anyone know what can get these off?

If it's plastic, I would use an all-purpose cleaner (APC) first with a terry-cloth rag first. May take some elbow grease, but it will most likely come off. I'm assuming that you dont have any pro level detailing APC products so you might try 409 or something similar that is readily available in any supermarket. If it is really deep scuffs, you can also try a Mr Clean magic eraser either with water or with the 409.

Would NOT use either of these products on the leather portion of the seat though. Keep in mind too that the magic eraser, while it is just foam, is acting like a super-fine sandpaper, so dont go too hog-wild with it.

I agree w/ toyemp, an all-purpose cleaner. But, have you just tried rubbing it off? Maybe a wet rag or terry cloth?
