Ah, that issue. I've seen it on a few cars. I've always just used the Tar and Bug remover. Takes the stuff right off. I can't say I've ever seen it that bad on any of the other colors.

My Teal car had the same issue and it would re-appear every 6 months or so. Seemed to be worse when it was hot out, which in Houston was 11.5 mos out of the year. lol

I read somewhere that the adhesive "wicks" its way out through the pores in the rubber molding. Not sure how true that is, but it sounds like solid BS to me!

I started using Zaino Z-CS Clear-Seal on those moldings and it seemed to work very well.

Good Luck!
