Door trim stain?

Has anyone had an issue with the door trim to the side of the window getting stained by make-up or things like that? My sister rode in my car a few times a while ago and after that there have been white residue stains where she closed the door that refuse to come off. I have tried Mothers "Back to Black" and Griots Garage wax remover as well as soap and water and goo-gone just to name a few. Does anyone have an idea what might get the "stain" (I think thats what it is) out?

Thanks
-John

try getting a small scrub brush from autozone or walmart, get some kind of cleaner, idk what exactly, and spray on the cleaner, the scrub the area with the brush, then wipe it clean. That's what we do when we detail interiors where I work. Won't scratch the panel.

Use a soft to medium toothbush, not a hard bristle one, and some all purpose cleaner and go to work. Make sure to wipe off all the excess afterwards and to treat the plastic after

Tip of the day: If you have to kiss your Evo, that's fine.. just wait until you get out of the car to put on your lipstick
