Hi

The car is getting a good clean, polish & wax today but I have got polish / wax on my matt black vinyl.

Any body got any suggestions on what to use to clean the wax/polish of the matt vinyl?

Cheers

are you talking about your graphics or the plastic trim on your car?

Thanks Craig. Sounds random but will give it a try.

It's the graphics, the matt black stripe to be precise.

Considering Ian's solution was going to cost over £20 for a bottle thought I would try peanut oil. Tesco didn't have any so it was the smooth peanut butter option and it was worked a treat.

Thank you very much for the suggestion and will need to keep a look out for some oil as I am sure it would be easier to apply than the peanut butter.

Thanks again.

Neil.
