Water Streak Marks
Can anyone help with an annoying and unsightly problem I have with my Autotrail motorhome.
The body colour in mainly white except for a large graphite colour decal at the front. Where rainwater from the roof runs down the side, it's made a streak mark down the graphite decal which, despite using normal bodywork cleaners still remains. Do I need something more aggressive? or a completely different approach? Solutions eagerly awaited!

I don't usually contribute to this section - for obvious reasons - but I had a similar problem with our caravan which has decals which look like mock carbon fibre. I got polish on them and nothing, but nothing would shift the marks. I even rang Auto Glym to ask their advice and their suggestion didn't work.
I mentioned it to one of the techies when it went in for its first service, last year and he came back into the workshop with a little bottle of clear fluid. Wiped it over the decal and all the marks disappeared as if by magic.
It was 'Tyreshine' - the stuff you use to black tyres - not sure if that's the trade name or what but I'm sure Halfords will have something. It's clear - even though it's a tyre black - so it won't mark the white bodywork. Worth a try.

Thanks richardandros for your swift reply. That sounds like an unlikely remedy , but I will get some and give it a try.
