    Well the jury's in... and degreaser and a scrub brush did the trick! Took like 6 applications, holy **** was there a lot of build-up, looked like just years of caked on mud and grease. I took an after pic showing the difference between the scrubbed area and an original area, but I can't find my memory card reader. I'll post pics as soon as I find it.

    Thanks for the advice!

    Oh yer no fun, you took the easy way ....no removing it, removing dents, cleaning, prepping and painting?? Oh wait, you prolly don't have any dents...well anyway, glad it worked out for ya!
    BTW, is it a charcoal/black color underneath all that like mine??
