How to clean the inside door panel

M3 DCT · 11-22-2011, 09:56 AM

When getting into and out of the car your foot sometimes makes a mark on the inside of the door panel.

I have tried to remove those " streaks" with a normal cloth and hot water. It just comes back after the door panel is dry again.

Can you please give me advise.

Most of those times, the streaks you see are actually light scratches on the door panel. You can try to polish it out or replace the door panel.

Just need to be a little more careful getting in and out. I'm extremely obsessed with the way I get in and out. I also make sure any passengers don't do it either and take off their heels

As stated above you could try to polish them out if its scratched or to try and cover them up. Some Mother Back to Black may do the trick as well.

No, I think I know what he means. The lower part of the door that kind of folds open for you to put stuff in. Happens to my car too. No matter how hard I try, my shoe always nicks it.
