Clean it with dishwasher soap and a toothbrush, just be careful around the parts that should be waxed. Then use "Mothers Back to Black"

Any solvents perhaps??

THX in advance.
3M adhesive remover, you can find it at pep boys, 6 or 8 oz black and gold metal can like what paint thinner and such are sold in. Does and amazing job and leaves the surface ready to take whater plastic dressing you prefer.
