Author Message   Tunes Posted on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 02:36 am:        It appears that brake dust and "other" items are staining the gray portion of my 12S chin spoiler. Anyone have any luck getting this area clean? What do you use? I've tried Simple Green, but with limited results.   Mckennaxb12r Posted on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 03:40 am:        yes- use bug and tar remover for the spoiler. I use it all the time. It's cheap stuff and removes stubborn road debris. It will look brand spankin' new after that. Happy cleaning/detailing!   Gentleman_jon Posted on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 05:29 am:        Products used to clean brake dust off wheels will work well too. However, I gave up, and painted mine satin black. Looks cleaner, and nicer actually with my yellow plastics, but best of all, it just wipes clean with a bit of windex .   Dale Posted on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 09:18 am:        I gave up and but the carbon fiber on.   Tahoe_xbuelligan Posted on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 09:37 am:        bug and tar remover does work well   Chgojim Posted on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 01:24 pm:        i gave up and just painted mine black.   Tunes Posted on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 05:33 pm:        Thanks! It looks like I have two choices... black paint or elbow grease, so I'll give elbow grease a whirl first. I have bug and tar spooge on the shelf. I was worried it would ruin/destroy the material... so, I'm off to the garage and clean my chin....... and who knows, I might be painting later! As usual, BWB is the best place to get yer info!!   Kevinfromwebb Posted on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 09:01 pm:        Tunes, I've used 409 or Fantastic cleaner to clean mine. Windex doesn't touch it. I have noticed a bit of color on the rag when finished so I don't use too much elbow grease... Kevin   Rocketsprink Posted on Sunday, July 24, 2005 - 09:22 pm:        I just gave up and leave it dirty! The rest on the bike is nice and clean!   U4euh Posted on Monday, July 25, 2005 - 01:42 am:        PAINT IT
