Re: rubbing compound

hi Lyndon,
try some hot soapy water and a towel. if towel is not aggressive enough try a soft brush like a paint brush. that should do it. i have also hot pressurewashed it away but you risk blowing the clear off. i hope this helps.
take care,
Matt

I have also had good luck with a little Isopropyl alcohol or Goo Be Gone.

Wd40, let it soak then wipe it out . Won't hurt the paint

A toothbrush is also very handy to use in tight places, use a soft one.

I might try to clay - bar the car... the detail spray would lubricate it enough for the clabar to "grab" the impurities.....if it works I would do the entire car so that the surface would then be uniform.
