    I am not exactly sure what these spots are on interior trim. I thought it was dirt splashed up. I tried using some Chemical Guys interior clean and nada. Hard to see but they are darker spots.
    Any idea what this is and how to remove?

    FYI: Purchased a used vehicle so that’s why I don’t know how or when it got there

    If it's permanently stained, then you're not getting those out. Could be anything. Maybe someone was sloppy with cleaning the cabin and sprayed cleaner on a hot surface at some point and it stained. Happened to me when I was a novice detailer way back. Live and learn.

    Might try a light polish. Be careful to keep off the darker pieces.
