I noticed several foot prints on my CD from my sneakers. I scrubed and the stains did not go away. Besides not wearing black soled sneakers, how can I get the stains out ?

Try Bleche-white, a whitewall tire cleaner. you can pick it up at most hardware stores, even grocerires, for a couple of bucks. It really does the job on foot scuffs, also bird droppings. Personally, I only try to use it on the really tough stains, as I'm sure this stuff can't be good for the water.

Don't use comet unless it is a last resort!!!! Use milder abrasives if water, soap, and rubbing or soft bristle brushing don't work. Try soft scrub after thatbefore using comet or a rubbing compound.

Black Stain remover does a great job on shoe scuffs.
