Rub more petrol on it??? I have no idea. A list of things you have tried might help though.

Oooo....hmmm...you could try some de-greaser? The stain left behind is probably the detergents and additives present in the petrol, the petrol itself would have evaporated...

...try some methylated spirits? Care not to get any solvents on the paintwork

Or some polish?

I dunno
