Like most Mac TVs, my unit has a few minor scuff marks. Since the computer is black, not platinum/beige like most Macs, I'm curious as to what the best method for removing minor white marks would be.
One possible solution I thought of is Mother's Back-To-Black. This is a substance typically used on the old black plastic car bumpers once they have become sun-bleached. I had purchased this for my old Volvo and now have a lot of it left over (as I no longer have the Volvo). It worked great on the car so I'm wondering if it would do the same on the TV set. (The Volvo didn't have any white scuff marks on its black bumper but did have the typical uneven fading in some spots which comes with age on any black bumper; this compound made the bumper look uniform). Of course, the plastics are different on the computer, but I thought I'd mention this before I consider the potentially damaging "magic eraser" (which gets rid of marks but also removes plastic texture).
I'm going to assume retr0brite isn't an option. (Unrelated to the TV, I'm wondering if it IS an option for a white Apple Pro Keyboard; these tend to get yellow easily).
