If your talking about the tops of the door panels I found a magic eraser works very well at removing all of the rotted plastic. I went back and actually waxed it and it came out perfect. You lose some of the texture but it's completely smooth. I would try this before you take a heat gun to it. sun faded door panels-photo927.jpg

Those things work wonders on the faded plastic. It's like night and day.
