Default Scuff marks have magically appeared on my clear bra

I've read through some of the replies. My 08 has just recently been taken out of hiding and I've started putting some serious road miles on it.

For some reason out of nowhere its gotten several "Scuff" marks in it. I have no clue how they got there but they are definitely noticeable. The last time I washed her they were not there.

Most of the threads I've read have suggested, rubbing compound, vinyl polish, glass polish, metal polish, or 3M Grease remover but I haven't read any where any or some of the above have actually been used and it definitely helped.

Could someone please comment on whether or not they have used anything that actually did 'Remove" scuff marks?

I've tried waxing/buffing the heck out of it, did not work...still there and noticeable...

my bad it's actually called Mr clean magic eraser. it's the sponge pad that you can get at Wal-Mart for like a dollar something. it gets rid of scuff marks on clear bras perfectly. give it a try. just dip the sponge in some water and erase away. let me know how it works.

You can try using a t bar. It's like silly puddy but you spray a quick detailer on the the area and then gently wipe away any imperfections in the paint to reveal a smooth surface with all imperfections taken out of the paint. And why do you have a bra on your car anyways? Bras are for **** not cars.

Default different type bras used by different dealers

The Mr Clean magic eraser did not work in fact it made it worse. I'm finding out doing a google search that this is a problem on just about every car board/website out there.

Depending upon what type bra you have different things may or may not work to remove scuff marks...

I'm not sure "exactly" what type bra my Z has on it as it was put on when I bought the car in 08.

Can anyone comment on what type bra's Nissan was putting on their cars in 08 or will I just have to call the dealer...
