How to Clean Scuff Marks on a Shower Wall
Scuff marks are annoying, black smudges that can mar almost any surface, including your shower wall. They most likely got there as repairs were done in the shower and someone with shoes had to step in. Although warm soap and water may not be enough to remove them, they are quite easy to banish with the help of toothpaste. You can use this technique to remove scuff marks from your shower wall or any other hard surface. Does this Spark an idea?

Use the scrubby side of a textured sponge to firmly wipe the toothpaste into the scuff, making small circles with your motions. Continue until the scuff mark begins to flake away and then disappear.
