    Download the Tapatalk app. You can post pictures direct from your phone though that app. The AG app has issues with pics.

    IMO the best thing you can do is use a non-staining spray wax/sealant/hybrid like Meg's Ultimate Quik Wax, D156, or Optimum Car Wax directly over that rubber trim to see if it removes what I assume are water spots. I only end up applying WETS to my trucks plastic and rubber trim about twice a year because I'm always maintaining my trim with either D156 or OCW. Both of these products will help maintain that stock satin finish we all love.

    Thank you! Figured the WETS being a sealer it wouldn’t get the water spots. I do have some D156 to try and get the spots off. So would I be better off using a trim dressing product and then apply the WETs? Sorry just confused on how this works and new to all this
