Peanut butter will clean it off.
To keep it black and protected in the future I'd use aerospace 303 protectant. Heck, I use that on my tires, my interior plastic, and my leather (with leather cleaner and conditioner on occassion too). IMO it's the best stuff you can buy. It doesn't make the plastic look too wet and oily (like you smeared petroleum jelly all over it) and it doesn't sling off the tires and it does more than shine, it protects. Anyways, that's just my .02.
IF you are looking for a product to give you that oily wet petroleum jelly shine then this is not it (I'd try petroleum jelly
)

Agree on the 303 areospace protectant. I saw a post by MikeLS and bought this the other day and it works great. The wiper and the wiper area looks like new and the interior and my leather seats are great now.

No, peanut butter works, i have had people laugh at me before so this isnt the first time and wont be the last, You can scrub at it with amonia or lighter fluid too, if you like to dry out the plastic. I would use peanut butter
