Gasoline stain on cladding...best way to clean

[handeeman]

I am going to show this pic to the Doctor and see if he knows what caused the thumb print. I will see him Tues.

This is going to sound nuts, but......the Miracle Orrange didn't even phase the stain! Can you believe it!
It did make the surrounding cladding a nice richer gray, a tad darker than the rest. I've left my cladding totally untreated with anything for over 2 months in preparation for going to Moab since every cladding product I currently have made dust stick like crazy.

Really makes me wonder if there's something in the Chevron Supreme gas that may be a bit different or something that caused this.

Oh well...last resort is CarSystem Refinish Restore.....

Sorry Sue that we didn't get around to trying the finish restorer at Moab. To many things going on in to short of a time for me. Will find a small bottle and mail you some to try, k

Hi sue !

That stain is way weird though,i had fuel spilled few times over the cladding but never got "printed" like that.

That chevron gas may have a quimical additive that caused the dark stain as you certainly thought

time for painting the clading.....

or use alot of gas to make the rest match....just kidding

Hahaha i was thinking the same think though,considering the way that stain remained there it may look good done all around the cladding

i have the same problem, and its been there for about a year.

but, not from gas. I had a can of Arizona sweet tea, and poured the last inch or so out the window on a hot day, not really thinking anything of it. a few days later after a wash it was still there. and still is after several scrubs/products. its about the size of a baseball but not as dark as the gas stain. but still very noticable. grrr
