Cleaning A Pillar - need help ASAP

Hey guys,

I had a bad experience today at the car wash. Some how, the marker that they use (blue) to write what wash you're getting on the windshield some how managed to get on my A Pillar. I have an 07 CGP ebony interior TSX. However, the A Pillar is a very light color. So, I went in and told the owner. He came out, took a rag, and applied some green product (simple green?). He then proceeded to scrub away at it. The final result is that it appears to be gone, but I have this big dark wet spot. Will this dry back to normal, or will it always look dark? Also, what is a good product to remove something like marker from the headliner/A Pillar in the future? This will be the last time that I am too lazy to hand wash my car

I had a black mark on my interior A pillar also. I have the Quartz interior. I used Resolve fabric stain remover. Worked really well. You can buy it at department or grocery stores.

Mr. Clean Magic Erasure. You can get it at almost anywhere. Look for it with all the other cleaning products ( Windex, etc. ) It's great in it's simplicity and works on pretty much anything. All you do is dampen it with water.

Do you think that the Magic Eraser will get marker out of a fabric though? Also, how did the other poster manage to get marker on his A-Pillar? Was it a similar situation to mine?
