    Have a few scratches on the interior dash (passenger side, near the speaker grill and window). The scratches are very white, on a dark dash. Tried many ideas to soften the look of the scratches so they would blend in but no luck. Anyone with some ideas on how to help camouflage ?

    Pic would be a good idea. I'll work on getting. In the mean time, the scratches themselves do cut a bit into the plastic, though the plastic is same color throughout so not sure why the scratches remain white. Scratches were from some nails in molding that was being transported (and not well enough protected or secured).

    Most white marks can be removed by gently rubbing or whipping with a microfiber towel. I've never scratched the dash deeply so I don't have a fix for that.
