Default Goof-Off

If any of you, like me, have the cashmere interior and have been finding it difficult to remove scuff marks on the plastic area down where the door closes and on the plastic area on the front bottom of the seat, good old Goof-Off works wonders. Just a couple of drops on a rag, rub hard and off come the marks!

Don't forget about Magic Eraser from Mr. Clean, it works extremely well for that...

jimmy....is this a product you can purchase Retail . Want to make sure its not something you p/u off 3 a.m. TV ad . As new 2010 owner that seems to be one where I'm going to have to stay with. My wife already cleaned these areas once with so-so results not sure what she used .
hope you are enjoying your vehicle as I do mine every time i get in.

Goof-off has been around for ages and can be picked up locally.

Sure - any Lowes or Depot, or any auto parts store.

And yes, love the car (well maybe except for the "automatic" wipers, which appear to be somewhat of an answer to a question nobody asked).

I have used Goof-off for years with other vehicles with success.

I also have used Goof Off for years. It removes most everything but I like the Magic Eraser as an alternative. I do remember it slightly melting some plastic years ago on an older car.
