Yeah, it works on some scuff sheets but not all of them! When it does work it works brilliantly though......

Nail varnish remover and cotton wool pads/kitchen roll have always done the trick for me

I've always left them, and let the red marks slowly(very slowly) take over.

I've always tried to use nail varnish remover with the bowling machine ball marks but it never seems to make a difference! Got a lovely clean scuff sheet and then this hideous bola mark :(

I use a lot of the hand wipes for work, can get them anywhere, have white spirit in and takes stickers,glue etc off toilets etc. might be worth a go, I've cleaned up most stuff with them.

Brillo pads work excellently on the helicopter scuff sheets

I have this issue, however, the bowling machine ball mark is on my iPad mini case! I was a lucky boy there!
