Default How to remove interior scratches?

Hi Guys,
As above really, how do I remove scratches from the plastic console?
Cheers

Depends on the plastic type, but Meguiars PlastX sometimes works well, and Menzerna Final Polish II can also be good on hard, gloss black plastics. That said, you need to be careful on satin and matt effect plastics, as sometimes polishing these can make matters worse. Any chance of a picture of the problem area?

Sorry for the delay. The quality isn't great pic taken on a phone.

The scratches are by the passenger seat, and were caused by my G/F handbag buckles.

That's one I would say won't come out; the plastic is textured and looks to be of the softer type, so I wouldn't be comfortable polishing it, as it could make matters much worse. Might be best to keep an eye out at the scrap yard for a replacement piece.
