I had my fit for 3 month now, and i notice that the interior black plastic (leather?) is really easily scratch or dirty. i don't know if you guy noticed this, if you scrape the black plastic (front or rear) it make a white marking. you can rub it with your finger, but it still leave a faded white stain like line.

How the hell are you suppose to prevent it or erace it???

 

Sorry, I can't help but correct your spelling but its

"Erase"

as far as cleanin up that mark, id say some mild soap and warm water..

 

Im not sure what youre talking about but im going to assume its dust... when you rub your finger on it, youre probably dragging dust into the textured surface of the plastic and its showing as a line.

Soap and water.

 

I got this scuff on the interior less than i week after i got the fit. got pulled over when i was moving, and had to move my computer to get into the glovebox. this is the mark it left after it rubbed the door.

sorry about the huge picture, wouldn't let me resize

 

that one is better

 

I swear the fit is one of the most cheaply made cars ever.anyway, i got rid of the marking on mined with a small portable steam cleaner. but you can used warm water, or those leather / vinyl shiner.

 

helloo. I use the Honda Spray Cleaner & Polish. That stuff is freakin awesome!!! i use it on the fit's dash, door panels, pretty much anything plastic and wipe down with a micro fiber cloth. you can also order it from bernardi parts since they stopped selling them at honda dealers.

Polishes paint, chrome, glass, and clear plastic.
Protects vinyl, plastic, and rubber
Blocks U.V. rays - reduces fading and cracking.
Repels water - beads up like wax.
Anti-static properties reduce dust build up.
Great cleaner for motorcycles

 

Until you guys have owned an 8th gen honda civic (06,07,08) don't get too upset!! that car scuffs SO EASILY its sick and it made me really angry at times, the interior plastics on the fit are 200% better then those in the new civics.

 

definately... my friend has an 07' Si and i am amazed because every time i get in his car, it seems there are new scratches throughout the car, mainly on the golvebox

 

i scratched that piece on mine too, you can just buy the armrest cap seperate, i got it for 10 bucks, but thats employee rate, so its probably 15-20 retail

 

Do any Fit owners use 303 protectant on the knobby dash or perhaps even the Fit sport's leather wheel? I'd like to hear if 303 could avoid marring the apparently thin black color on the dash.

 

I don't use any protectants because it gets down into the little dimples and is hard to remove. I just use mild soap and water to wipe it down.
Would love to find something better but can't find anything. I do use
Meguires leather clothes on my steering wheel.
