Marks on my bonnet decals

I have marks on my Park Lane bonnet stripe from where the washer fluid has gone onto it and stained it It is the washer fluid that was in my car when i bought it new last may.
When i noticed it i put some wax on it and it did stop more marks appearing, i was wondering if anyone else had the same problem.
I'm going to get them to put another one on i think as it look horrible

My standard bonnet stripes are also stained... I'm going for a change soon so not that worried tbh... I'm sure I've read on one the threads here about people getting their decals changed under warranty...

Not sure about the bonnet decals, but I had my roof decal replaced under warranty, as the silver went blotchy and funny looking

I cleaned my black stripes with a very small amount of Turtle Wax Safe Cut on a damp cloth. I could see a small amount of black on the cloth after but the stripes came up well.
