Newbie trim question

I recently purchased a 4.8is. I had a question about the black trim around the car. The trim I am talking about is the trim that includes the fender flares on the 4.6/4.8.

After cleaning the truck, it doesn't take long before it gets dirty. It looks almost like white/grey powder on the trim. It wipes off fairly easy.

What is everyone using to keep it clean? Is this normal dirt build up?

Thanks,
Jay

Sorry, new the forum. Saw another post with products called GR40 and Black Again. Who makes them and where can I get them?

Thanks again.

I don't have a 4.8is, but I recently tried Griot's Vinyl & Rubber Dressing on my 4.4i with great results.
I used to use Mothers Back to Black with decent results; however, I found that this product really lacked durability (as compared to Griot's). I've also heard and read good things about Black Again, but have not tried it (yet).

Thread will be moved to The Detailing Forum in 5...4...3...2...

And :welcome: to X5world.
