Afternoon folks!
I have a new-to-me, low mileage, 2017 RAM 1500 Limited which was purchased from a non-RAM dealer last year. This dealership washed and waxed the truck when they put it on display, and I noticed that the black panels (applied film?) on the door pillars had a "mottled" white appearance. I figure this is residue from the waxing/detailing work, but don't know if a product can remove it and restore the black. I've gently rubbed the areas with soapy water applied with a brush but it didn't improve the appearance.
Attached are pictures of what I'm describing, one with flash the other without.
Can anyone suggest a method and product for removing this "blanched/bleached" look? I was thinking to try Meguiar's "Magic Black" but haven't done so yet (not so sure if it would work since it's meant for bumpers and plastic).
This is an unsightly "blemish" on such a nice vehicle and I hope I can get rid of it.
Thanks for your assistance and suggestions.
Cheers,
EAS
