• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Is there a way to get this fade out? Looks like the sun might’ve caused it. I heard heat gun but not sure how to do it (don’t have one)

Have you tried cleaning it? Looks like could be sunscreen or a spot where an elbow was resting on.
 
303 Aerospace or 303 Auto - they're the same product (per the mfr.), whichever is cheaper in your local store or online retailer.
low shine, UV, long lasting & effective - inside & out.

... yes. It’s faded

Having a black interior, it looks like a contact with something and not UV unless you have it focused just on that area. As the black plastic ages, issues like this will be minor compared to scratches and wear marks, if this helps at all. The durability of the interior has been questioned numerous times in various threads.
 
Hand sanitizer maybe? Grabbed the door while hands still wet? Hand sanitizer has a way of really messing up areas that it sits on for a little bit, it can fade the color and cause this kind of discoloration as it dries and evaporates. Hand sanitizer especially hard on leather steering wheels. I think this area will probably require a leather cream color restorer that matches. Find a company that specializes in this or you could do more damage. Just my .02 cents.
