Black streaks, from your decals or rubber roof runoff?

303 Black Streak remover best I've found.
Actually Camco Black Streak remover is good.
Follow directions. Directions not the same for all products

following...

I've got discoloration that looks as if a chemical a has dripped out of a window and across the vinyl graphic while I was driving... Only in one area,

Tried car wash soap, all sorts or mild polishes and waxes, 303 and other vinyl preservatives... nothing treated it to my satisfaction

the best thing so far was a mild polish (Voodoo Ride Polish) and then treated with Shine Supply "Clutch".... it's a "water based silica spray that enhances and protects paint, trim, chrome, plastics & more!" Non abrasive so you've got the clean and polish prior to use

The marks are still slightly visible but this combo helped to minimize it considerably.

I'm sure I'll have to continue to treat the area every year.

I know folks don't recommend wax or polish, but after 15 years of maintenance on this coach this works for me.

Just be mindful if polishing with a orbital polisher you don't get aggressive and be careful around the edges of the vinyl
