Cleaning Cerium Grey Trim

Myk-D · 04-05-2018, 07:02 AM

So, I gave my M40i it's first wash (in my care), and I've noticed that the Cerium Grey trim (grille, mirrors etc) seems to pick up marks really easily, be they water or finger etc, and they seem to smear. Also, I've noticed what I assume to be a sticker mark on top of the driver's mirror. Even my dealer made a comment that they'd had to work on the water marks on the grille.

Anyone got any good ideas about cleaning products for this trim?

The residual markings are from the protective covering during transport.
3M Adhesive Remover worked for me

Ok, thank you. I should be able to get this in a shop close to me, and this looks like it will be handy elsewhere.

Did you use the matte Jet seal or the original?

I used the original. Have done the whole car with it - it’s brilliant stuff! Makes washing the car a breeze!

Highly recommend!
