Ive detailed a few neglected white vehicles and they all have one thing in common. Around any emblems and even some body gaps they have brown staining. Since these areas are hard or impossible to get to with a polisher. Do you have any recommendations for a chemical cleaner to remove this staining?
 
Try some IronX, with light agitation using an detailing brush.

You could also try IPA spray. Spray some IPA on the detailing brush and try to get the dried on product moist for removal.
 
You could also use the same polish being applied with your polisher, but simply use a small foam applicator pad to get in close. Since you're working by hand, your polish will be more aggressive than an AIO/cleaner wax and will probably yield better results.
 
Duragloss 501 has some intense cleaning ability, and leaves a durable protection behind.
 
Spray 9 works on the brown spots wipes them right off.

Getting right next to emblems and such, try using Q-Tips with a bit of compound and GENTLY massage the area.

If what I think you are fighting, you'll use a LOT of the cotton swabs, but it will work.

Another little trick, cut the swaps down and chuck them up in a Dremal and use low speed. Just be VERY careful, it's like using a rotary and will (and can) burn thru in a heartbeat. Don't try those 'polishing bits' that Dremal offers, they are WAY to hard. Okay for metal, not paint.
