shrink wrap film residue- how to remove

Hi all,

Thanks for all the great ideas. I need to work up the courage and confidence and be sure the method I will be going with will work and I can rest easy. I appreciate all the ideas so far presented here. 
My dealer contacted his rep and they seem to think its a moisture issue and to use a hair dryer to get out the stains. Keep it 6-8 inches away and go back and forth on the speaker. They also mentioned to look for a furniture restorer to repair the speakers. I did ask one company and they wanted me to bring the speaker box cause it would need to be re-lacquered. I explained the speaker has multiple drivers and it would be a huge chore to disconnect everything..ughh...anyways, I was looking at Meguires Compound today but not sure how abrasive that would be to the clear coat finish..just giving a quick update..still trying to get something to clean them..thanks all.

For paint finish, the best polish to remove marring and is Menzerna polish. Expensive but way better than Meguires.

You want both Super Intensive and follow by Final polish, both by Menzerna.

Polish by hand.
I used it on my Wilsons W/P 7s before, as well as my cars.

Thanks lprules1962. Its 2500 grit. Very fine stuff here. The company also suggested to use 3M Finesse on the speakers. To me that means I would need to use an electric hand buffer to apply it to the speaker and I'm not too confident of my abilities to do a good job that way. 
I do agree it probably was a moisture issue but had no idea stretch wrap would react that way. I had the stuff on 2 other subs that were high gloss and didnt notice anything when I looked at them as well. Maybe they use a different type of paint and gloss on their subs. Thanks for your suggestion.

The clay bar is a great idea, although very intimidating to those unfamiliar with auto detailing.  Without assuming any responsibility, you might try some alcohol.  I just used everclear to remove the sticky residue from a very old plastic piece and I was amazed.  I was absolutely sure the plastic had degenerated and oozed a sticky substance, but it was only a surface coating removed by alcohol.  

Thanks chayro..you know now that you mentioned it, the support tech did mention to use isopropyl alcohol to remove the marks as well. I guess its not abrasive I suppose is why he suggested it. So your experience, what do you mean it was "only a surface coating" removed by the alcohol? Was it still shiny and had a smooth feel to it after you cleaned it with the alcohol? Reason I ask is cause I have to do the whole speaker(s) with the alcohol if it works and dont want to damage the coating or leave a dull look or scratches as well when finished.  Such a delicate thing these high gloss speakers.Did you dilute the alcohol or did you use it full strength? Thanks chayro.
