TFR damage = Traffic Film Remover, its highly alkali and some types are acid. If it's not diluted enough or left on too long the results are stained and damaged paints / plastics.

I learned the hard way many years ago - I sprayed my wheels with wheel cleaner - washed the car and then went over the wheels at the garage with truck wash - the alkali wheel cleaner was cancelled out by the acidic TFR / Truck wash - it left a right fecking mess. 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17
