My girlfriends pt cruiser has these spots on her black trim on her doors in between the the windows. I don't know what caused these spots or what the trim is. It seems to be some sort of plastic painted black but i'm not sure. But I don't think it is just part of the door painted black. Anyways I have tried cleaner wax,clay,and pinnacle paintwork cleansing lotion and it got alittle better but still there. Anybody have suggestions?
 
The car has 4 doors and the part of the doors that are on the inside inbetween the windows has some black coating on it instead of just being the same color as the rest of the car. I havent tried peanut butter or vinegar yet but I'll give it a try next time I wash. thanks
 
Mine and a lot of others have that problem, Chrysler has a TSB out on it.



I used mothers plastic polish and a MF cloth, came out like new.

The spots seem to come from visiting a drive thru car wash. I'm guessing the harsh soaps are staining the plastic trim. I've seen it on probbly 30-40 PT's. Never had it on either of our's since we don't frequent automatic washes.



In addition to KB's Plastic Polish routine, I've had good luck with a quality liquid cleaner wax and a microfiber towel.



Give 'em a try.

Technical Service Bulletin



It's a special notice they put out for mechanics and and whatnot to give special attention to (or corrective procedure) for whenever they've screwed something up and bad things can happen. Happens more on North American cars. :rolleyes:



EDIT: oops, kbshadow beat me to it. Darn slow fingers/internet...grrr
