Default Removing scuff marks

I got some black scuff marks on my lower door interior panels and lower driver side seat. I tried just about all the cleaners in my arsenal, but to no avail. How can I remove them? Thanks.

Are you referring to the vinyl or leather area? If so use a damp cotton cloth and small dap of SoftScrub w/Lemon (Do not use the one with bleach!!!). Gently scrub the scuff mark area. Wipe clean with damp cotton cloth and wipe dry with a dry cloth. Repeat as necessary.

Mr Clean Magic Eraser also works wonderful on such things, but because, like the Soft Scrub, it's also slightly abrasive, rub gently and evenly on the areas.

It's worked for me when nothing else would.

P.S. FWIW, Be careful to avoid scuffing the same areas, because you only get so many tries at removing marks on some interior surfaces with solvents/abrasives before you break through the coloring (most interior parts are painted/dyed).
