Shoe scuff mark cleaning

I have a scuff mark on the passenger side door sill (close to where the M4 sill plate is). How can I get rid of it?

Yeah, I have those two. My car had 7 miles when I picked it up and whoever drove it already put some marks in it. I will be working on that this weekend and let you know what I find. I am going to try a few different plastic cleaners. The problem is that it may not be actual dirt but rather a scuff. I have one in my door panel too.

Anyone with other ideas?

I have it right on the door sill where it is painted. Drives me nuts and I can't get it off.

A DA polisher would probably do it, this annoys the hell out of me, why can't people just pick their feet up!?!?!

Zaino All in One. It gets my girl's heel scuffs off the rocker panel every time. I saw somewhere someone used Mr. Clean's Magic Eraser, but I'm way too afraid to try that. But I'm more afraid of telling my girl to pick her feet up. That look will kill, but don't tell her I said that. Wait... she's not going to see this post is she?!?!

DO NOT use a magic eraser on your car. Bleach = no more clear coat. Clay bar will take it out. Our use something like this.
