    Those will work good on some Western type stuff, that have a lot thicker paint application. Be careful using it on Japanese vinyl that is sprayed.

    for vintage toys, I recommend a cleaning solution from Twin Pines of Maine. It is orange based, and it is mased for use on GI Joe bodies and other plastic and vinyl. You need to water it down a bit, and work slowly, but you can get about 50% of the scuffs off on regular play wear. harder vinyls are less receptive (talkers for example) but you know the stuff won't hurt your toys.

    I have no idea what is in magic eraser, but I bet it is a bleach derivitive, which could be scary in the long run.

    there's nothing in a magic eraser

    it's just a weird sponge

    you wet it then squeeze out the water and wipe away

    there has to be some type of active ingredient..

    or is it just the course nature of the sponge that removes scuffs etc.? hmmm

    I think that's it. I had really good results getting off some paint that rubbed off onto another figure.
