Black Scuff Marks on a Car

By TAMARA (Guest Post)

I am a mail carrier and my car gets hit often by mailbox lids. Will WD40 work on these marks? Yellowgirl25tg AT yahoo.Com

Live in the city. Someone took their boots to the side of my auto, leaving black scuff marks. WD40 worked like a charm to remove.

A pencil eraser will generally work.

What is WD-40 - is it a degreaser? I am wondering which South African product would be a similar substitute.
Thank you!
Kind regards

Editor's Note: WD-40 is a spray on machine oil. Probably something similar would be sewing machine oil but in a spray bottle.

depending on what the black marks are from, try using an eraser.

I got hit by a basketball pole........and it happened exactly like it sounded.....I was in my driveway and started my car and the wind blew like extremely hard and the B-ball pole fell over and struck my car leaving a punishing black scuff mark and some little paint damage. but I tried everything to remove the black marks. Any tips? I know they will come out but how and with what!

help please!

I have removed tar residue with WD-40. It will remove the gooy stuff on bottles and jars too. It will also knock a wasp out of the air and either kill it, or give you time to kill it.

The WD-40 will not hurt your paint on your car, so it is well worth a try.
Good luck,
