Hi everyone.
I am new here so please ignore the dust in the following picture since I am just now trying to get this car cleaned up. I have a problem and hope someone can help. On the center console (grey plastic trim), I have quite a few spots that won't come off. I am not sure exactly what these spots are but if I had to guess, I suspect it would be Pug spray. Yes, pug spray, not bug spray- long story. The car is garage kept and driven only occasionally so I never really noticed these spots until today when I had the top down when starting the interior cleanup. Now that I've seen these spots, I can't unsee them. It's AG's fault. I never paid much attention until visiting this site for the first time a few months back. Now I am starting to notice things on my car I am not very happy about. Thanks everyone. :D
Anyway, I attempted to remove the spots without any luck. I first tried warm water, then warm water and Dawn, and finally Cockpit Pro, none of which made any difference. Since I am new to the detailing thing, I don't want to do anything stupid. If I've learned anything from this website, it would be to always start with the least aggressive method. This may be one of those things that has been there so long that it's there to stay but I would really like to try and remove them.
Any recommendations on what to try next or should I just leave it alone since I might make things worse than they already are?
Sorry about the picture quality but it started getting dark about the time I decided to take a photo. There are dozens of spots and all are more noticeable than the picture suggests.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
