Smartwax worked wonders for my clients vehicles. Or a very light polish... I hope you are talking about the black glossy trim that is between the windows on the coupe...

Yep....my shadowline trim looks like it's two years old already and my car is garage kept and polished weekly. I don't get it.

Found this out by accident today. While applying rainx to the windows, I had some overspray on the trim and noted it removed the water spots. Try a small spot and see what you think.
