[hokuspokus74]

I got an elina lightening bolt seat,i have been scrubbing it with degreaser and non scratch pad but it doesnt seem to be removing the marks on it...any other ideas before i goto dye it?

[oldschoolace]

Bleach or peroxide would be my first thoughts 

[Taipan]

what about that vapour blast thingy they they doing tuff's with? 

[oldschoolace]

Yep that would probably yield good results too, though if there is any flat, shiney sections of the seat it probably would lose its shine

Put in a bucket, leave in the sunshine & bingo 
Just be careful if you quite like animals

Cheers guys for the tips there,ones mention peroxide and leave it in the sun but little sun over here in N.Ireland always raining ffs,it would have the shiney sides and back but will need something thats going to bring the shine up etc

Just try a strong mix of bleach and scrub it. Don't leave it in the bleach as it will turn yellow. Give it a good rinse after. 
I have also done a white kashi aero in the dishwasher (NB low temp setting and don't use a salt tablet - just water), this can also get ground out dirt removed. I love a dishwasher for cleaning parts. Must be the pressure.
Both have worked for me.

Cheers Bmx1973 just not sure if anything will lift the marks off the seat ets maybe best dyed black as the whole seat looks an ivory colour would never come up bright white again.

One consolation is they do dye really well 

[hokuspokus74]

Its got to be dyed then,would have loved it to been bright white but you cant have everything
