I spent 4 whole hours yesterday to wash the car and apply t-cut colour restorer to the paint. The result was to end up having a shinny white uno like it just left the factory. The problem is that today after rainning a lot i discovered that the rubber seals in the windscreens both frond and back stained the paint work. I tryed to clean them but it seems that they loose theyr colour constantly. Is there anything on the market that can solve this problem or have you tried one yourselfs that was really good please let me know
many thanks

The 'rubber' sheds its blackness and I presume that this is causing the staining (rather than colour restorer that's washing out from underneath the rubber?)

My suggestion is to 'exfoliate' the rubber by rubbing carefully with a green scourer dipped in a soapy solution. By removing all the loose 'blackness', and then rubbing some silicone (or tyre shine, etc.) into it, you should avoid this problem for a while.
