    Yup, followed up with vinyl conditioner.

    Vinegar makes quick work out of the exhaust tips.

    I would be careful on this, lots of opinions on here to the contrary, some claim it can take the finish off the vinyl and make a mess of it.

    I have also had great success with Magic erasers. I have removed marks from the hull I thought would never come out. Also removed grease/grime and marks on my vinyl. I always follow up with a protectant. Best of luck.

    Everyone I talk to uses them. I have been warned only to avoid the generic copies.

    I use Simple Green and Dawn for almost everything. Mild stuff and it works. The Simple Green wipes are great for the vinyl, but you should use a high quality vinyl conditioner from time to time. Stubborn hull stains or bright work, I usually use a 3M products.
