I posted on this in Detailing, but haven't had any firm answer, so I'll try here. I got some polish on the plastic/rubber trim on the top of the drivers door, and it went from a shiny painted look to a dull rubber look. Even rubbing it with a terrycloth towel marred the surface. Is this normal, or do I have defective trim?

I did a double post because of no replies of anyone having this problem. I tried rubbing it while washing, using more polish, using a citris type cleaner, and Back to Black. Nothing works. And the more I rub into farther down the trim, it does the same thing. Now I'm afraid to touch it for fear of ruining the remaining trim. I can also push my fingernail into the trim and it leaves an impression. I just want to know if this is normal I guess, or if it'* a defect I could try to get fixed by the dealer (haha).

Look at this picture from my paint thread. It'* the black trim at the very top edge of the door. It'* hard to tell in this pic, but on the left side of the pic below the flash spot you can see it'* dull, while on the far right it'* more shiny like a painted surface. But yes, I can dig my nail into it, it seems to be soft.
