shoe marks and scrapes...

Anyone else notice alot of black shoe marks and scrapes in the painted and plastic areas of their passenger door sills and door panels? I don't want to sound like an anal a-hole to my passengers but I want to be like stop dragging your damn feet over the door sill when you get in my car!!! I never had this annoying problem before with my other cars so I'm thinking the door sills are higher than normal or something. Either that or my friends are just retarded. I'm getting tired of trying to remove shoe rubber and scratches.

It happens too in my car. I noticed that the rain streaks on the inside door trim look horroble too.

We need a better way to clean the door trim.

Put Extra wax on that area and it'll be much easier to get off. I just use my cali duster and its gone in a jiffy

Wet washcloth or microfiber towel will clean that up. Just need a little elbow grease. It pisses me off but I make my gf do her side of the car.....hey......makes her feel like she's helping.

Ha! No shit. Funny how there are none on the driver's side but tons on the passenger side.... Some one needs to learn to step over the sill and shut off her heated seat when she exits....

YEP!
I got tired of the scuffs from the passenger size and put down about 3 coats of Zaino w/ZFX (had a small amount mixed that would have gotten tossed) -- a wet cloth will now get rid of the worst stuff in seconds...
