Door shoe scuff marks
Do you guys have recommendations on how to remove stubborn scuffs at the bottom of the door (see image)? These are from our shoes. As much as we try not to touch our shoes to the door, it happens. After I try to remove them, is there anything like PPF for these areas?
Thanks, FS |

I've always done this to my two-door cars. It's the curse of longer doors. It is what it is.

Don’t forget. The G87 is equipped with 2 memory seat settings. Simply set the 2nd memory seat button to move the driver’s seat to its most rearward position. A quick tap of the number 2 button will now move the seat rearward and allow the driver to exit more easily.

I was on some random reddit thread where someone was complaining about this. A poster mentioned 303 protectant helped.
I had some 303 lying around that I use on my outdoor gear. I put some on a rag and tested it out. It actually did a great job covering it up. I'm not really sure how it worked. Like if it picked up the rubber from the shoes, or if it's just filling the voids and covering it up, but after applying it I can't really see where the scuffs are. |

If you overheat, you will get a dull spot. Good luck. |

Textured plastic is always very difficult to remedy. This heat method actually sounds promising & I've used it to careful remove other blemishes from soft plastic / rubber coated composites.

I have done this to every car I've ever owned.
This is one of those "take a deep breath and accept your fate" things for me. |

I didn't realize I was doing this until I read this post and then looked at my car. It's bad.....
