    The one thing I hate about my Prius is that if you touch the plastic parts of the interior it scratches. Are there any tips or tricks to make it look any better? My girlfreind seems to scratch up the passenger side and that just drives me crazy!

    I've noticed that this plastic doesn't necessarily scratch super easy but that it looks like it does. Because of it's roughness it really picks up dead skin cells very well making it look like it has a skin tone scratch on it.

    I have the same issue too.
    It is a pain to keep wiping the marks with a wet rag in order to get the marks off.
    I tried using McGuire's vinyl dressing but did not last long at all.

    I'm going to be searching for how to clean its Softex fabric - the previous owner of my '13 left some goop on a seat.

    Your first post is correcting someone's (or is it someones) grammar? For real? That's pretty hilarious.
