Friul tracks/Blacken It woes....still!

OK guys, this isn't a lazy question. I searched all the old posts and attempted to finish my Friuli Jagdtiger tracks accordingly. I scrubbed them in acetone. I soaked overnight in white vinegar, even scrubbed some with Purple Power - a very strong detergent. The final result? The Blacken It rolls off of them like a ball point pen on wax paper. What's going on here? What sort of toxic, nuclear waste do I have to treat these with to get the mold release or whatever off of them? It's really only on the face of the tracks, in the recesses of the "waffle" pattern where the stuff won't affect it at all. I'll likely weather this kit somewhat so there'll be mud covering the silver spots but for the next kit - any ideas how to defeat this?
