Hi

All my grey trim is discoloured with what looks like dark water marks. Tried a few cleaners but nothing touching it.

peanut butter...  ... - .- -.

That looks exactly like tfr damage to me - been too strong or gone over the dwell time. My local car wash did the same to mine
Spoke to a valeter pal - "repaint time mate sorry".
However, some g3 compound on a cloth and a lot of hard work has largely brought them back - so no repaint after all
Not done the bonnet one yet, can't reach  2007 Vogue TDV8 with 255/55/20's fitted

I thought peanut butter was for restoring faded colours back to normal? Oils and all that...

This looks like bleach splash but in reverse. Gone darker rather than lighter.

The grill, side vents and bonnet vents are all light this. I'll have a go with some G3. See what I can do.

Anybody ever used the wurth plasti PT? Current Family:

See above! Tfr damage... 2007 Vogue TDV8 with 255/55/20's fitted

Yeah I agree. Tfr could well be the problem. It's certainly something that's been sprayed on.

G3 it is then. Current Family:

Yours isn't as bad as mine was, try some g10 first, may do ok.
You may find it easier to take trims off and sit down to do it in the warmth! Just remember to water-lube your compound.

Yes looks like it. But looks like the same problem so hopefully get the same results.

Well the answer has been found. No more marks on the plastic grill and vent trim.

That's interesting, very interesting.
Will use that on my bonnet vent then instead of G3  2007 Vogue TDV8 with 255/55/20's fitted

S'cuse my ignorance, but what is Tfr damage?
