Dirty sealant

We cleaned our motorhome the other week and just can’t get the sealant clean at all. Tried Fenwicks, both diluted and full strength but it isn’t shifting the black marks.

Any ideas?

    If you Google the question you will find lots of suggestions from others before you - they include white spirit, neat and diluted bleach, various proprietary mould cleaners, and usually involve someone else's toothbrush. I never bothered, so have no idea if they work or are safe on your paintwork. Try an unobtrusive corner.

    As above. You can also use that toothbrush with some toothpaste of the bleach version of Jif/Cif cream cleaner. I think it's the blue bottle not the yellow one. Make sure you are not to aggressive on the paintwork. I'd apply some car polish/wax when finished to give a bit of protection.
