Bump I need to know too same problem

 

I've found peanut butter to work well on my 318ti. Works great on all other black molding as well. Tape around the molding to keep it off the paint and rub the peanut butter on and then wipe off after you finish coating the whole piece. An old toothbrush works well to apply it. The natural oil in the peanut butter also gives it a nice look when your done. Check bimmerforums.com and search for peanut butter for more information.

 

try rubbing alcohol

 

I have used rubbing alcohol and it has kind of worked. Worth a shot

 

sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. its weird like that

 

I have been detailing cars for many years, and have found that rubbing alcohol works the best, as well as then adding a nice coat of Meguiars Black Trim Detailer. You may need to re-apply the trim detailer as needed... but should last for quite a while and keep your black pieces looking like new.

 

the best stuff is by far.

forever black bumper and trim Dye.

will get it all black again and looking like new
