Cleaning Products

Hi all,

So I've been a little obsessive about keeping my three week old prius as clean as possible. My husband was riding in the passenger seat over the weekend and made a small scuff mark on the glove compartment with his shoe (grr!). Feet on glove compartment = unacceptable! Anyway, I made several attempts to get the scuff mark off, and in the process, it seems I've only made it WORSE. I first used water on a clean towel, then armoral wipes, then an LCD wipe I had in the car for the display screen, then water again. Nothing seems to work, and the scuff has now grown to a large dusty looking spot.

So, I was wondering if anyone has some suggestions for cleaning such a spot and about particular products you use--the spot is on the grainy part, not the actual dash. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the info. I just ordered some of the 303 cleaner and protectant. I hope it works and is worth the price! Now I just have to be patient and leave the spot alone until the cleaner arrives!

tried the 303 cleaner on the glove box. it didn't work at all.

i have some goo gone and was thinking of trying it, but i'm not sure if it would be okay to use. ugh. i'm so frustrated. any other suggestions?

i did get some of the 303 protectant, and i really like it. used it on the dash, and it looks really nice.

Try Mr Clean Magic Eraser

I used it to clean skuff marks from the lower door plastic trim. It works well. You can find it at WalMart.
