Okay, I get you now...makes sense...chalky white streaks? Ugh! I got them on my GMC too.
I've got issues on another one of my rides like that. The "stainless" trim is weathering all over the car, and I haven't found anything yet that will restore it. White "splotches".
Nevr-Dull didn't do anything. I think I will hit it with some 3M 5990 (Is that right? The white polishing compound?) by hand first, and see if that works. If not, I may have to try wet-sanding with 2000 grit and hitting it with rubbing compound on the wheel...
