my g/f RAV4 has that plastic cladding on the bottom of her doors and the color comes off fairly easy. only pic I could find from this winter.

suggestions.

Just go easy on 'em. Sounds like they're single stage so maybe the pigment transfer isn't as significant as it looks, but still there are some areas where you just can't do a whole lot of correction. I have areas on my Mazda minivan where I cut through after hardly *any* polishing (and that was with mild stuff); some vehicles just have areas where you have to be very gentle even if that mean living with imperfections.
 
I believe on the rav4 they are painted but its flat where there is no clear up there so I don't think you should try to polish it like a regular painted panel. I would just clean it in the normal wash and try not to use anything to aggressive on it
 
thanks guys. guess I'll start easy and work my way up and see what rubs out.

757 it is flat. she has one of those little steamers might give that a try to get the heavy off.

will take pics when I get to doing it, right now I'm working on one of my '01 Blazer. man that paint is hard.

Yeah, I did the first pass on my '00 with the rotary/orange/aggressive product (H-T EC mixed with 1Z Ultra). Then the H-T/1Z mix by Cyclo/orange, then 1Z PP/Cyclo green.
