There is stuff called Renovo first use their cleaner, then their reviver and the window polish if needed

Is it on or off the car? If its on the car you'll need to protect the newly painted bodywork from splashes/runs.
I know its more work but I would be inclined to remove it (with help) from the car to clean and treat it, there are other makes of colourant on the market not just Renovo. (I bought green Renovo for my hood, done a test area almost turned it black so its still on the shelf)
Good luck.

I cleaned mine with detergent and water several times and gave it 2 coats of Febsil when dry. It looks great now

Hi Len.
I have some protex hood cleaner and waterproofing left over from a recent job.
There's plenty of the cleaner left and enough waterproofing for a coat if you want it.
