Black rear bumper - removing polish marks?

(1/1)

john87:
Ever since I've had my Golf (nearly two months) there's a few streaks of polish that appear after I've washed it, and for the love of scrubbing I can't get them off!

When I picked up the car there was a buildup of excess wax/polish around panel gaps, and I'm guessing this is what's on the bumper..

Does anyone have any suggestions on what chemicals and/or cleaning aids I can use to get the bumper 'back to black' and polish free?

Thanks,
John

Depends if it's wax or polish residue. TBH all-purpose cleaner and a stiff brush should help. Sounds crazy but groundnut oil has been recommended as the best thing to get and keep black plastic trim looking black for longer.

keith:
dried on polish try a pencil eraser
Oil based dressing are good and can last but they need time to dry or they will streak.

thanks alot guys, will try some APC/degreaser and might as well give the eraser a try too, never thought of that  :happy2:

Peanut butter (smooth) will get rid of polish on unpainted parts  :happy2:
