Default Scuff Marks

As I open the door and step in the car; occasionally my shoe will scuff the plastic by the seat and leave nasty white scuff marks...

I have tried acetone, paint thinner and a number of things and have had no sucess removing these marks...

Anyone find a solution to this or a similar problem?

Well, his leaves WHITE scuff marks, so I would say wear black-soled shoes.

No seriously, I agree with the others, the Magic Erase is a MUST in any household. You won't believe how good this thing works on just about anything.
