Black Marks On Walls From Vacuum

I have black marks on my white walls from the vaccum. They are from the rubber bumpers on the side of the vaccum so you don't scratch or dent the walls. I have tried everything that I can think of to get these off and nothing is working.

Does anyone have any ideas?

MR. CLEAN MAGIC ERASERS(not the sponge type, just use a rag to wipe up) WILL DO ANYTHING!!!!

Try the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. Works on just about everything you thought you could never clean!

I had the exact same problem and after trying every cleaner I could think of with no success, I used a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. This is the only thing that worked. One note: Be careful with the erasers, since they have a tendency to dull glossy surfaces.

MAGIC ERASERS WORK WONDERS, TRY TOOTHPASTE ALSO, NOT GEL TYPE.
