I'd try:
Wetwipes, in circles with my fingertip
Anti bacterial spray + microfibre cloth, in circles with my fingertip
Paste of bicarbonate of soda + water, with an old toothbrush, slowly in small circles0 -
WD40
(there is no problem in the world that cannot be solved by WD40, duct tape or Terry's rose baum lip gloss)0 -
or a 'magic sponge'. the white eraser sponges can take marks from black trainer soles off vinyl so I don't see why it wouldn't work on bike tracks.0

I would suggest cream cleaner/cif.0

Try using a magic sponge or an eraser which works on scuff marksBlessed are the cracked for they are the ones that let in the light

Yes, magic eraser. One pound in Tesco. Buy two or three as they break up quite easily but they really do remove marks.0

Thanks I will try the magic sponge, cream cleaner and duct tape.
WD-40 believe it or not didnt work!0 -
Vinyl flooring can photograph rubber tyres.
This may sound odd, but it is a true factoid.

If I could do emojis I would do sad face, but actually don't think that duct tape would work (it's just in my emergency kit)
I have never found the magic erasers any good, but there's a lot of votes for them here, so please let us know, and I may have to add them to my emergency kit!0 -
