Here's an X5world article and thread about this issue.
x5Monkey recommends CarBrite Power Pak. Good luck. |

Hey, I use meguires #9 too, just used some yesterday because I was trying to remove some scratches on my side mirrors, it worked well for that. As for the window trim, I am able to remove the discoloration, but if you wet it again with water it reappears. Did you use a machine? I want to try that next, I did mine by hand.

I use the Mothers Back to Black on all my 'black' parts it does a great job take off the oxidation, etc on the trim pieces...might have to use it a couple times to see a difference. I also use it on the interior..and OMG it looks great on everything really brings the blacks back to life.
It's Good stuff Manard!!!

I'm with you on this, although A LOT of people told me I'm nuts when I previously praised the Mother's for the trim. All I can say is, it works for me.JV

don't use back to black on those pieces, just put a heavy coat of wax on them.

After trying several products...I found that Mothers Back to Black worked best for me.
