Plastic Has Some White Spots.

The outside plastic (beneath window, and tailgate), they are all fading and turning white. Any solutions to this?

Warranty, Warranty, Warranty.

Yeah, I got a solution: Quit taking pictures of your neighbor's truck and complaining about its perceived defects.

Just dirty, maybe? Try scrubbing it when you wash the truck.

Wax buildup. Maybe salt. Wash it and see. Laser washes are good but they don't get stuff like that.

OK, maybe I'm a little harsh, it could be snow.

I was also going to say maybe wax or salt. I know I have wax on all my black plastic...

[punmax]

Washed it up and its still there. You can't really tell in a cold day, but when the suns shining you can. Its all over the truck, even where the wipers are :O

Really? Get us a close-up so that we can evaluate it. Go ahead, we'll wait.

[punmax]

But its so dark outside.

[hubbycap]

Use the flash.

I'll do it tomorrow morning, it's raining, cold, and dark lol.

probobly wax buildup....washing it wont do it...they make a stuff called back to black or something like that. I believe maguires makes it. takes wax off black plastic and restores the luster of it. Ive heard good things
