Black Plastic Scuff Marks

[Phishin]

Anyone have experience with a good product to fix this??

A large metal item was on my floorboard and rubbed on the door panel in my 2018 Silverado.

You can try a hairdryer or heat gun, or a magic sponge (mr clean eraser, etc) or other gentle abrasive method (which can make it worse, try in a tiny less conspicuous area first), or detailing goop to wet it, Armor All, etc.

I think the best you can realistically do is clean it to get the big rough parts or transfer off, then either magic erase it like Dave9 said, followed by putting some kind of interior shine or oil-protectant on it to fill the roughness and make it less visible. Kind of like waxing the car.

Those scratches are still going to be there, the bell can't be unrung unfortunately.

I've had very good luck putting interior shine on large white splotches on black plastic and they're completely invisible.

Don't use heat or abrasives! Both methods will make that area shiny in comparison to the rest of it.

Nothing magic out there to cover up this "oooops"?

Nope. Time to look out for a truck that had a bigger oops and buy a door card.

Maybe some aftermarket covers to hide those marks. From the pictures, you've gone through the plastic outer layer. That won't hide with any type of spray.

Mr. Clean Magic Eraser should work...

I used black shoe polish on a scuff on my Mustang door panel. Not perfect, but looks a whole lot better.
