Are they just dirt-scuffs, or actual scratches?
On this topic, here is a HUGE tip for the new owners. Your keys grind the hell out of the plastic on the dash. You may want to consider putting some clear tape or something on that area to prevent this. It is too late for the rest of us. Mine looks really bad.

Mikeb, I'm guessing you mean the 2nd part of my post. I have only a couple of keys on my keyring and no goofy baubles. When driving my keys swing back and forth, and have scratched up the area of the dash adjacent to the ignition. If I had it to do over again, I'd have put some kind of low-tack clear tape over that area as a scuff guard. I still might do it anyway...

There is a way to search for local vendors from the website - most in my area were boating-related.

303 Aerospace Protectant is great, and I highly recommend it. 303 leaves a nice matte, satiny finish instead of the slippery-shiny look of Armor-All (very evil stuff). A tip: spray it on a clean cloth and then apply. If you spray it directly on surfaces it may come out looking uneven.
I've been using Mother's Back-to-Black and a lot of elbow grease to get rid of scuffs on the doors, etc. 303 minimizes them, but Mother's and a lot of rubbing get the scuffs off completely.

If your scuffs/scratches are too deep, Back to Black or 303 won't work. I tried them both on a scuff mark on the inside plastic sill that runs the length of the passenger entry...no luck.
