There is not really alot of room in the back for is x50's, have some minor scratchs on the plastic..
Girls are not careful -.-

It bothers me a bit and looks whiteish.

Is there anything to touch it up or remove the white color? tried rubbing it with a wet towel.. no success

thanks

I have used Chemical Guys G6 Hyper Coat on interior plastic scratches (mostly on the door entry step through plastic thing, forgot what it's called, which most people won't clear and scratch it everytime getting in and out of the car). Even though it doesn't "remove" the scratches, it definitely does help with the looks. I have not tried it on the back of the headrest of my 2007 GS but I suppose it's some similar material as to the IS. I have a bit of scratches on the back of the seat which is the exact same material as the back of the headrest, I will give that a try and get back to you regarding the results.

I tried putting CG G6 Hyper Coat on the plastic, it definitely improved the look. Most smaller "scratches" are gone and bigger scratches are a lot less noticeable. But if you are looking for something that will completely hide the marks this is not the product.


Here are some pictures:

Before:

^That is not dirty, I cleaned it as best as I could.

After:



Comparison Shot:


*Depending on how you like the look, you may leave it after applying for a more glossy look or buff it out to get a more matted OEM look. In the comparison picture, I did not buff the after. In the After picture, that was after buffing.

I've got the same exact problem with the soft touch plastic on the seat backs on my ES. Half the materials in this car aren't kid-proof

The scratches go into the material, I can feel the grooves with my fingernail. Is there anything else I can use other than the CG stuff? Can I use something to dye the white lines to make them less noticeable?

There are all kinds of brands that make interior plastic repair kits... just like auto body scratch repair, you have to level the area, fill it, and then paint it.
