How To Clean Aluma Look
Is there a particular product recommended for polishing/cleaning the "aluma look" surfaces? I find that the aluma look surfaces in the rear hatch, alongside the oil lid are particularly difficult to keep looking smudge-free. I've trired Windex and it doesn't remove the smudges...

On alum. trim I've had success using a few different products depending on what I'm removing. The p21s is an awesome all purpose citrus cleaner and degreaser. I'll post up some pics of some interiors I've used it on. You can dilute it too if you think full strength isnt required. I also use Spray n Wipe for regular maintenance on alum, cf, etc trim.
