Have you tried letting it set out in the sun yet? For some reason, that works for us alot of times.

In the future stay away from chemicals like acetone. Bad, very bad for vinyl. They tend to break down the viynl

Thanks for the heads up on the Magic Eraser. Our vinyl had some greesey fingerprint marks and winter storage dirt. Took some Fantastic and the Magic Eraser and vinyl came up great. Treated it after with a vinyl protectant. I was very pleased. Also did the rub rail across the back that gets dirty from the exhaust, it worked well for that too.

Thanks again, GREAT TIP!!!

ink stain will disappear if area is left in sun, most other remedies only fade the stain. It is absolutely true that ANY cleaner that is flamable shouldn't be used on vinyl.
