Need some advice from the gurus

The dealer decided to "wash and wax" my car when I stopped by getting a new radiator surge tank cap put on (mine cracked). In the process they managed to stain the door trim around the windows with a faint white residue that will not come off with washing. Since this seems plastic, what should I do to remove it? Or am I screwed?

 

I would have them replace the parts they screwed up. Especially if it wasn't your dicision for them to "wax" it. You may want to try a little goo gone.

 

I would try brake clean. That takes anything off!!!!

I use 3M adhesive remover to remove wax on plastic trim

 

I agree with the goo gone. I would also recommend goof off. Just make sure you get the water based version. There are 2 types and the other one may be too harsh. Some dick ran spray paint across the back end of my A6 and the water based goof off took it right off with no harm to the clear coat.

 

WD-40 has always worked for me.

 

+1 or goo gone

 

Yes! WOrks Great!

 

this is what the detailers at my shop use and it works perfectly to get wax off rubber and plastic

 

+1 for the Back to Black great stuff wouldn't use anything else

 

ditto stuff works awesome.

 

Ok thanks guys.

 

get some 3M adhesive remover. it is what i used to debadge both cars. safe for all surfaces. also u might try some Meguiar's concentrated car wash. put some on a towel & rub it in. that may work as well. brake clean shouldn't be used inside the car & unless u like driving high...

 

Karash the battle is on this fri between me & John @ Mynes. come by if you can & i will help u get the stuff off...
