I had those stains for about a month and could not get rid of them. I happened to buy some armour all spray to treat the interior (dash etc.) and used it on the fenders as well. It worked extremely well and took away 98% of the stains...

I used back to black this weekend and it took out all of the mud stains. I'll be using it regularly.

After 4 years, I now just use road clay and dirt, that jumps on there all by itself. Leave it on long enough and they are just a uniform color that requires no cleaning.

F*&kin black textured fenders anyway.

Back to black works wonders. I also use 303 cuz it has a spray on it.
