Anyone have good or bad thoughts about WD-40? I've used bkf and ammonia free window cleaner. The window cleaner definitely gets grime/dirt off the panels well but still had some spots that didn't come out and the panels showed the streaks from the cleaning strokes. Honestly I didn't think the bkf did much. I didn't let it sit too long, if anything I started wiping it with the towel immediately so maybe I didn't wait long enough or I'm applying it to stains it isn't made for.

Wd40 is paraffin so basically kerosene

What works is a black softest polishing pad as well as car polish. Run it over 4-5 times and it should removes all stains.
That would be after you tried the BKF soft foam cleanser first. I use a wireless cheap polisher and this: https://amzn.to/44B4NOj
Has to be a very non abrasive polish as it will change the finish and look uneven so you'd have to do the whole entire section..
Use this for reference.. I think the polisher is on there too but not the pads.. any softest black pad will do
