NXT is an absolute BEAR to remove from trim. You need to try a dedicated trim cleaner like Meguiar's #39 or GR-40.
People will say peanut butter, but IMO, it's only a temporary fix.

yes, I use Back to Black,works great for me.
Also I've been told but have not tried myself:
Also I've been told but have not tried myself:
- Meguiar's #39 (Heavy Duty Vinyl Cleaner)
- have noted the peanut butter idea on many bulletin boards -- rub on, leave on for 1 minute, wipe off. Apparently the peanut oil acts as the solvent.
- I've also used Meguiar's quick detailer spray, with a detailing brush -- works very well.
- also, you might look into 3M "general purpose adhesive cleaner, # 08987" --it's safe for paints, made to remove grease, wax, tar and all forms of evil.

In this case Zaino is easier to remove but with more steps involved.

So after using the #39 for the cleaning you put on the #40?
