    What do I need to use to clean off white body shop dust off these end caps I received? I have microfiber cloths but just not wanting to use the wrong thing. Don’t know if I use water or what. I spent some money on the end caps and had them color matched and this is what I got. Not happy lol but just need to clean them to see if the paint job is even worth a damn. thanks!

    Company said it’s baby powder to protect the paint and wipe it off.

    Just dust? Rinse them off. Maybe car wash soap or if the paint is cured use Dawn dish soap.

    They said they chip them covered in baby powder to protect the paint. Dunno. Toyota oem parts and their body/paint shop they use. Said it will wipe off with microfiber
