White marks on interior black vinyl?

Hi

I have no idea what it is or where it's from, but we have white marks all over the interior, on the door (and a few black marks on the yellow vinyl). Since I have no idea what it is, I'm not sure what to use to get it off - soap and water? I have generic, not Dawn, dishwashing liquid.

Thanks for any suggestions, the car's not even a week old!

I get the same marks on the door panels. I am not sure what is causing them as I don't remember ever scuffing any thing against the area.

I use Mr Clean Magic Eraser to remove the marks.

I would be interested in others views as to what is causing the marks.

Start with gentle cleaners first like water and mild soap as stated. .

If that doesn't work, might want to try cleanser such as Griot's InteriorCleaner. Stuff works amazingly well.
