Just picked up my s211 Advantgarde S and the car is in amazing condition, it looks almost band new.
The one item which wasn't up to standard though was the goo'd up headlight switch panel, it looked like a cheap plastic pound shop toy.
I already had a bottle of sticky stuff remover under the kitchen sink and it worked a treat on a dealer window sticker on my previous car.
Apart from buying a new trim panel from the local MB dealer I thought what the heck let's do it!
1. Apply sticky stuff remover via a kitchen paper towel, let it soak in by dabbing and reapplying.
2. Gently wipe goo away using a clean area of towel used to apply solution, try it in small sections as I found this easiest.
Don't use a dry towel as it'll stick and leave paper fibers to get rid as well.
I also used a small pointed plastic knife to remove the goo around the part edges where it meets the dash panel.
3. Finished it off with some CarPro Perl for a much better medium shine look.
Done!
