Chimaera fuel spill - bumper stain.

[batman0404]

OK - I was warned short fuel-filler neck and I thought I had it sussed, but a few days ago I wasn't paying attention and ended up with petrol running down the boot channel and over the rear LHS bumper. It's left a 4"-wide stain on an otheriswe pristine car which won't come out with silicone polish, other "soft" polish or any amount of elbow grease.
Anyone any ideas?

I had the same, try Methylated Spirits on a clean car, then a Turtle wax Soft Cut prior to Claybar.

Top off with your normal wax to protect against further stains.

I now put kitchen roll in the channel by the filler, to stop fuel running along and down when refuelling.

Thanks.
I'll give it a try and let you know.

You could use cellulose thinners but just use a tiny bit on a cloth and be CAREFULL i have used this before for removing tar spots etc and it does the job very well.

Thanks TJC46.
I'll try that if the above doesn't "cut" it.
