    i find an all purpose cleaner worked in with a brush tends to do the trick, you will need to rewax afterward though.

    Yea AG Fast Glass with a tooth brush if its textured plastic would be my recommendation.

    Think I'd be inclined to try the faithful sonus tyre and trim, though some of the above sound good - and cheaper. Particularly like the WD40 and peanut butter. Used WD debadging car, must try the peanut butter sometime.
