Try a hard bristled tooth brush. The hard bristles will allow it to get in the little spots. That is how I get it off of my plastic parts.

Also maybe try using Zaino. As far as I know it doesn't affect plastic parts. or rubber either. great shine

I know quite a bit about detailing, if you guys need help feel free to ask, I would more more than happy to help you.

Use alcohol or if you dont have any, smear a little peanut butter on the affected area, lit it sit for 15 seconds and wipe off.
