This may be no consolation, but it is the same issue with the Revell Samba bus.

Oh, that are a lot of ejection marks!
For raised ones I use a scalpel nr 15, if there is enough space around. In the middle of pic 1 are some with tight structures around. Here I would use a model chisel like this one (example, there are different sizes): Chisel F2 (Master Tools 09924, No)
Deepened ones can be closed with round pieces of styrene (made with punch and die, in the matching diameter.

The X-Acto #17 chisel blade is also excellent for removing ejector pin marks. It can be used in the normal chisel angle as well as perpendicular to the surface as a scraper. #17 Lightweight Chiseling Blades - 5 Pcs (X-ACTO X217, No)

The metal floor should be corrugated on a type 2, so another approach would be to hide them under corrugated panels.

Thank you so much for the comments. I'm in the middle of removing them. Some of them are really high. I use everything I have on the hand (Saw, chisel, scalpel, sandpaper). For some I even used a dremel (really cautious) Even if i would hide the behind corrugated panels (God idea by the way) I still have to remove them before.
You can see in the next picture how high there are. Ione was almost 1mm

I'm liking those plates. I applaud anyone, who tries to advance their skills. And you did it right, by trying this on the bottom first.
