Tab 400 black decal stains

Hi, I have a 2018 Tab400 of which I am the 3rd owner.  I have wax swirl marks embedded in the flat black decals on the side.  I have been trying to find something that can clean them without success.  So far, Dawn dish soap, Awesome, and vinegar have not worked.  Wondering if anyone has a recommendation.

    Hi. I just "restored" the outside of my 2020 Tab 400 with a 3 step process using Meguiar's products. It's very time consuming but looks showroom new now.

    Hi.  Thanks for your feedback!  I had noticed the Meguiar's products in my research, but have not purchased any.  I pursued LA's Totally Awesome as it was identified for removing the black streaks.  I had some success with it on the decals, but was not a home run.  Decided to experiment with silicone spray since I had purchased some for treating rubber seals.  This worked fabulously!  Don't know if it was the silicone or the mineral spirits that did the cleaning.  The results were spectacular after 2 applications.  I will further put it out there to warn everyone:  DO NOT WAX FLAT FINISH GRAPHICS!  Particularly if black.  Previous owner did this on mine and it looked bad.  Shiny graphics are a different story as the wax did not get trapped in the material.
