Just did this to my C230 MB with the same gray interior. Completely cleaned the areas described. Looks like brand new. I didn't really have to apply that much pressure either. Thank you so much for the tip Darren.
I tried it on my 13 year old car and it worked incredibly well. I couldn't believe how easy it took the dark marks off. I tried for years using different products but nothing worked. Thanks for the tip.
I forwarded maybe a total of 8 min and was able to get enough info about ur background the tips and tricks etc. Thank you good Video. Simply way too long. Dont forget more than half the world does not have fast internet
Excellent video. Informative and easy to watch. Definitely going to use that method to clean up those darn scuff marks.
Excellent video - just the advice I was looking for. Thanks for taking the time to show it to us.
Thanks for the tip. I used the magic eraser a lot inside my home, but always with water. I realized that it doesn't work in the scuff marks of my car. I will try it asap. Great tip!!
What about scratches in the plastic door panels, what would be the best way to try and conceal them?
excellent videos, I like the amount of detail you put into explaining why and how in your vids.
You must be an OLD guy!
We picked up a town country limited van used. Im not so sure that the dealer did a detail, anyway the ME i tried after watching alot of your vids. HOLY CRAP the seats and trim look new! That thing is friggin amazing
This was a great tip. I used some Fantastik and the Magic Erasers on a light beige panel and it looks as new. Thanks
God.. he can talk so much. this video could hv been just 2 mins long.
That's how CZcamsrs make money lol
Exactly what I was thinking! Glory! Just show how to clean. I don't need to know what kind of car it is. Whew! Just spit it out! Wears me OUT!
I agree. I almost turned off the video.
I have scuff marks on my f150 on the silver trim on the side of the center counsel. how would you fix that? Thanks for the help
took him 7 minutes to start showing how to do it.
Hi Darren, Any suggestions on how to remove minor scratches from interior door panels? I've seen other vids where they use a heat gun. Does it discolor the plastic? Thanks!
Would the magic eraser work on black interior? Would it scratch it and make it dull ? I know I can use armor to shine it up u would still see the scratches on top of it I would like to know if it would remove the scratches
What do we do to protect this door panel and door trim area? Anything? What about clear vinyl?
It worked on a scuff on the back of my seat. Thanks guy.
I have some scuff marks like this on my passenger door of my black car interior and hardly removed them at all. I used chemical guys orange degreaser and a magic eraser. Any other suggestions?
Nice vid. You are very detailed with your info. Nice
How do you get black marks off vinyl trim I saw them after I used iron remover on my truck today and got black marks on vinyl didn't tape the vinyl up think I don't want to use a iron remover again now.
What would you do in case like that?
Does this work well with black interior plastics?
I cannot tell if these are marks or scratches. Will it get scratches out aswell?
Thanks for the magic eraser tip. For my interior cleaning formula I use diluted wool wash. I got the idea off a Professional Detailer’s CZcams post years ago , who was cleaning leather car seats. Works great and cost effective and I also use 303 UV protection on the interior. The magic eraser will help complete my regime thanks.
And by the way I appreciate the long verbal descriptions. If you want to do it right it takes a lot of explaining and a longer video.
does this work for tire marks inside on back seats?
Will this remove the uv coating or plastic dye ?
I have a scuff on the dashboard of my 2018 Lexus. I tried alcohol which left the scuff intact and a shiny spot where the alcohol was applied. Still trying to remove scuff, shiny spot and then apply a dressing ie. Mothers VLR. Can someone help me? Thanks.
Nice video, do you think black scuff marks like in the video would come out using any degreaser or does it have to be a specific car degreaser? Thanks!!
will this work on black interior that has white marks?
Does this method work on black plastic also??
Miss you! When will you start posting again!
I miss the era of short helpful CZcams videos. This would probably be under a minute saying that you spray and wipe with a sponge.
Thanks so much for your sharing! I subscribed!
Good video, but you could have done it in half the time with much less talking.
but where's the fun in that?
love the videos Darren I've learned a lot of tips from you just wanted to say thanks
Does this work on black interior???
hi Darren,
I've had some pretty bad luck. I've being doing some interior on cars only and they have been very bad. I take like 3 to for hours doing them. the last one I had had lots of mold in the car that it had a lot of mud and mold. I charged the person $80. I didn't do it 100% but it was at least a 90%
Much appreciated. Good bye to scuff marks!
I didn't have good luck with the Magic Eraser. I used just the ME and water and it left the door panels scratched on my Hyundai.
went looking for a solution , black door trim translates to white scuff marks ..thanks for making this vid.. Greetings from The Netherlands.
Thank god he doesn't do videos on rocket science..............
Martin Oberg lol!
Martin Oberg or brain surgery
hahahahaha! Absolutely!
10 minute long video, and he doesn’t even start doing it until 6:45. 😑
For the degreaser mixture, what is the ratio you use with the distilled water? Thx
I think he said in the video that the ratio was 4 to 1
hello, I am from Ecuador, and here there is not this Magic Eraser Mr. Clean product. What can I use an alternative ???
Emilio Farfan melamine sponge
In short - a magic eraser sponge and a diluted degreaser 4:1 ratio.
Great tip
so the sponge he is using is the magic eraser? aka the melamine sponges correct?
Anthony Foley yup
I have a black interior that have white marks. Does this technique work?
gerardsatamian I have the same issue and I can't find the fix to it
great tip! I love win-win situations!
Thank you
Start at 9:15 and save yourself some talk time
Thank you
hello where i cant find the litlle sponge :-)

Mr Clean Magic Eraser can be purchased anywhere: Walmart, Target, Walgreens, all major stores that sell cleaning products and also online
Why does everyone show on darker surfaces? I have a C6 with tan interior and this doesn't work as well as said. It takes out a good percent but not all of it. I have a concours this weekend and those little marks can cost me points. Not I am not saying it doesn't work, just not as easy or works as well on lighter interior. I had to scrub hard and they still did not all come out. I love the magic sponge, I own a video game store and we use it to remove sharpie marks on the old cartridges. But I also notice when we do that the texture will change afterwards which concerns me for a car.
Terry Tang They do abrade most any surface if used hard and long enough. I think what you are experiencing on dark interiors is that the plastic of material has been damaged and it shows up on dark material better than light. The Magic Erase will not fix this damage and simply removes the dirt and transfer. But the damage is concealed to begin with by the light interior. For this reason I usually follow up on dark materials with an aresol dressing to conceal any damage to the material that cannot be cleaned away.
Maybe this page will help:www.best-auto-detailing-tips.com/car-interior-dressing.html
When I said dark surfaces I meant every video I have seen is people doing it on dark interiors not light. I will admit my high heels do make marks in both my C3 & C6. The C3 has has black interior and my C6 has tan. The magic eraser did not take out all the marks in the C6. And they are not damage marks either, they are scuff marks. One things that worked rather well was using a de-greaser and my Scum Buster with the soft brush. There is still a very light mark and I hope I don't get points off because of it. This is a NCCC concours and people mark you off for 1 hair in the car. I just purchased the C6 so I was dealing with someone elses mess. I do appreciate your video, just maybe next time show it with a light interior.
Terry Tang My wife has a MBZ c230 with light interior and have used it to show how to clean floor mats and using the Magic Eraser to remove the scuffs on the light colored threshold plates. You can see it here: czcams.com/video/nZkFKNWrLcU/video.html
This video shows me working on the same light colored floor mats from the same car: czcams.com/video/ZHn2DfH6on8/video.html
I also use Scotch Brite abrasive scrub pads to clean the threshold plates if the Magic Eraser proves ineffective.
+Terry Tang i have a C6 with tan/beige interior also and damaging the texture on the threshold plate isn't a problem i sometimes use a scrub brush but if you do get a dried out dull look just use some interior dressing and wipe it down to get a uniformed look but i never had that problem
+Terry Tang This is light interior, wdf??
I hate those scuff marks on my black interior plastic door panels. They’re difficult to remove and it drives me crazy. Thanks for the tip.
Did it work on black interior??
Same question
nice
Where can I get that degreaser?

thanks!
Darren would a Magic Eraser + Chemical Guys Nonsense work to remove Shoe Scuff from Plastic Door Panels? Just wondering if you've ever used the Chemical Guys Nonsense
Skip to 5:00. Nevermind. Skip it all.
This did not work for me.
I just bought a brand new honda civic lx and it has this white scuff (black on inside doors) on the drivers door and im like DAAAAH!! And the dealership said theyd be able to take it out, but i kind of want to try this magic eraser idea as those things work wonders for surfaces around my house. SO with that said, any thoughts? Has anyone done this before? I'd hate to make it even worse! Thanks Guys and Gals !
Try it on a test spot hidden before you use it as it does put in very light scratches depending how hard you use it. Let the dealership install a new piece. If it has a high gloss stay away from it.
SMOOOOTH LEGS BRUH!!!
I like your "back in the day." Please get to the fucking point kinda like back in the day.
Good Info but it should go like this. Spray black marks with a over the counter cleaner de-greaser, scrub with magic eraser-done. Oh if all the black marks didn't come off try again. This was a ten min video that had good info and it works but really ten minutes. Get it done in one. I could of cleaned four cars by the time this video was done. Thanks for the info though-it does work.
I used to detail cars and I know the work involved. When I first started I worked for a rural new car dealer and you could spend four hours on a gravel dust dash. I have evolved and definately appreciate the magic eraser. I'm wanting to get back into it but do pros like you buff cars? It used to scare me because you never knew how many times it had been buffed by a dumbass and you burn through the clear coat on say on a hood angle body line your screwed. Painting a hood would be what a thousand dollars? And now you have a great looking hood but the rest of the car isn't and now it looks like it was in a wreck. Do you just strictly hand Polish and then wax? Or do I need to watch more of your videos?
OMG! Could have been 30 seconds!
I learned a lesson, take a quick view of the reviews and then decide to watch.. Sad, how come a person decide to waste so much of his and otelhers time..
What a waist of time , this guy had 4 yrs at Harvard for this spectacular presentation.
Profection
BMW 7 series and Land Rover are full of "painted" plastics and it kills their resale
Yes, and not just the 7 series, but all models are notorious for this problem. Every manufacturer has their problem children when it comes to design, manufacturing, and materials.
Oh good it's a Mercedes A class that has black shoe scuffs on the interior moldings that I need to clean.
Instead of telling us what not to use, it would be helpful to getting right into it.
Talk and talk and talk
Eliminate first half and stop talking. Just show us! I never saw any work!
tell people its kerosene!
This guy is a beginner! Americans think to slow
Talking too much
Get me headache
Your voice is boring
Make it brief plz
Thanks, but you are too wordy! Get to the point man! 🤣🤣
You definitely don't get your money's worth with a MB. Incredibly overpriced, generally unreliable compared to others in the class, a small fortune for service and repairs, etc. As hard as this may be for some they only have to look at the resale value of these vehicles.
Get to the point.
this guy is talking for USA wat waste of time.....
too much talking
wow just do it and stop talking
Good grief. Get to the point, man.
Sooooo much talking.
Waaaaay to much talking in this video can't believe you have to watch almost the whole thing to find out what to do geeez
