Scuff Marks inside door

drdre8424 · 04-04-2009, 12:26 AM

I'm required to wear boots like all the time. Sometimes the tip of my boot scuff the inside door panel. Obvisouly I do my best to aviod this, but is there anything I could do to prevent this, or just old fashioned elbow grease and a rag.

Well I also wears boots everyday for work(military) and I just got used to "pulling" myself out of the car as opposed to "stepping" out of my car. Hard to explain, lol.

I know what you mean!
Instead of stepping inside your car to get out you open your door and take your foot out right away. Yes?

Is it possible to apply the same material as the clear bra to that area of the door, it's been almost two months since i test drove the z so i dont remember what the inside of the door area exactly looks like.

I hate scuffed doors. I do my best to avoid them.

I put my right foot deep inside first, then I sit down, then I pull my left leg in avoiding the doors.

Its getting out that can be fun....

Try one of those Magic Eraser pads...All the fat-footed Corvette guys swear by them...

I don't even wear boots and mine looks kicked to hell, I just have big feet. I'm going to have to practice my disembark maneuver.

Magic Eraser pads are highly abrasive! Great for tires, flat-finished surfaces, but not for any gloss or semi-gloss surfaces.

At least you're not dealing with roommate... he feels the need to kick my passanger door open rather than use his arm to push it open. He no longer gets to ride along.

Tell me about it. I have been practicing that for days now, and still occasionally kick either the door at the bottom or the edge of the seat.
