Meguiar's #40. Agitate with stiff nylon brush.
Or try rubbing alcohol.

First of all, not by double posting....

I would try the #40 or rubbing alcohol mentioned.

If you mean that white staining that polishes/sealants/wax leave on black plastic trim, then Eagle1 AtoZ wheel cleaner and a toothbrush is the absolute best thing I've found (and I've tried LOTS of different products). Thanks Bill North!

Don't forget the ever popular peanut butter solution. That works too. I usually stick to Meguiar's #39 and a tooth brush.

I think this is the best product I've found to get stains off plastic where chemical is the best way to go. If a mild abbrassive is appropiate I use Zaino's plastic cleaner then follow with z16. If chemical is more appropiate I use K-VLRP then follow with z16, to remoisterize. I have no idea why carcare markets this as a cockpit product, I use it more on exterior plastic cleaning. My most recent restore job with K VLRP was this PT cruiser, and trust me the bumber was in bad shape. I just applied VLRP and then used z16 for a nice even protective sheild and the customer was ecstatic.
