Petrol,thinners or panel wash, take your pick, or even any car polish and a nice soft microfibre cloth. All depend how bad it is tbh.

I did just this on a truck cab the oher day and used an electric polishing machine and some polish, the polish was labelled up as machine polish, I was impressed, so impressed I did my tool box with it
Also had to do wifes car door as some idiot done the usual supermarket kiss, autoglym super resin polish, again came out well.

WD 40 can also be very effective on some types of plasticised paints and less harsh on your skin than petrol.
1997 Defender 90 for the kids and I to have a go at some competitive off road RTV and Tyro trials, daughter picked up her first trophy over the August Bank Holiday.
