Anyone know of any good product to get rid of yellow cow/ horse sh!t stains from clear plastic film at rear wheels?

Not good on a white car...

Cheers

I think some fresh armourfend-type stuff is the best bet really.

Just take your time when applying it!

The problem is the plastic discolours....it isn't (usually) stuff stuck to it.

T-cut. I've used this successfully on mine.

Tried t-cut and cutting polish.... decided just to replace them at next service... unless some product does the trick in the meantime

Had exactly the same issue with my white S2.

Got Ally to do some detailing work on the car then got the Armourfend replaced. Car is looking so much better for it (but still needs a couple of bits sorted out as they are a bit grubby).
