Help cleaning window trim
I need a little help from the car detail gurus around here. Apparently the last time I detailed my car I got some cleaner, polish, or wax on the black window trim which has left a white residue. Any suggestions as to what the best way to get this off of the trim is?
Thanks.
Thanks.

A simple eraser, or some Simple Green on an old toothbrush should do the trick. If all else fails, Isoproyl Alcohol cut 1:1 with water.
Don't forget to treat the area with a trim restorer after you're done though. Dull gray trim is nasty.

If you apply a Protectant (though I do use Back-to-Black on my older car) on the trim before you wax, you'll run less risk of staining the trim.
Also, I use FX SynWax, and it really doesn't stain trim at all like a old-style polish or cleaner wax might.
