Probably been discussed before but:-
I was sceptical about using peanut butter to clean up external plastic trim after seeing it on tinterweb, but, having tried it - it works a treat.
It certainly beats all the proprietary spray can stuff.
Give it a try.
Brilliant result on my trim!!!
:D

I used auto gylm stuff. For Vinal and rubber, u can't eat it b4 or after. But it is shocking good, wipe it over, cleans and almost paints at the same time. Leaves stuff looking wet and shiny
