Sunscreen Stained Trim

Hello - I cant seem to remove sunscreen stains off my leer camper shell. This is gloss black trim that sits below the rear window. Ive tried alcohol, various cleaners - this seems to have set in. Any suggestions? Would a polish such as Meguiars Ultimate Polish work here?

 

Some sun protection products are abrasive. I suspect it’s mineral sunblocks( zinc oxide/ titanium dioxide). I’ve ruined a few goggle lenses this way.

have you tried buffing with compound?

 

I believe that is exactly the product - my buddy put the heavy duty stuff on lol. I have not, im a little nervous to try at first, I do have some light polish. Would that harm in any way?

 

What’s the most you’ve ever lost in a coin toss?

 

Maybe just sunscreen the whole thing?

 

Most people dont believe me enough to try it, but a very fine steel wool will do a great job on windows. Go for 4 aught (0000) or honestly triple (000) would probably be fine as well.

Caveat emptor and what not, but I swear by it.

 

Meguiars PlastX might be a good product to try.
