I've tried all the black streak remover products & not had much joy with them. Ths morning however I was taking some light scratches out with 'Turtle Wax metalic T cut', when I tried it on the black streaks, it took them straight off first wipe, no rubbing at all. I have used it on all the streaks, it has not damaged the surface at all, I then used autoglym to polish & coat the area's so it is easier to clean next time. I don't think you can stop it.

The metalic T cut is a lot less abrasive than normal T cut.

If you get back to messing with water tanks, you won't be able to see them anyway Tony.

Try a quick squirt  of Mr Sheen or similar furniture polish.

A few seconds and polish off. Magic!

Hi,

I spent ages cleaning mine off and spent a night out in monsson like rain conditions and awoke to find more black streaks. Why doesnt someone make white rubber seals?

Fenwicks do a black streak remover and a protective coating called Bobby Dazzler which apparently stops them coming back. They also sell horse shampoo and I cant help wondering what would happen if you mixed the black streak remover with the shampoo and tried it on a zebra?

You will probably find that the marks are made by the crap in the atmosphere not always the rubbers.
