the chainsaw bar lube is only good for porous plastics.

for now, i just use a good tyre shine. i rate the valvoline one that smells of citrus, and a once over with a rag to take up excess. only thing is that it doesn't last very long....

cheers for the kind words

Prepsol will most likely get it off. Failing that, an acid solution will work.

When I was detailing, I soaked the car in acid to get hardcore stuff off, but be careful if your clear coat is thin, it will burn through paint.
After the acid soak I went over the entire car with prepsol to get the remaining wax and grease off difficult areas. Then I'd do a full cut and then a polish with the buff, then another wash, then finally, a polish by hand.

Yeh its hard to keep 'em black, what with their location. Even in the dry they tend to get coated in dust.

Thanks

Bat shit?! Where the hell do you live mate?

If it helps, I just use bug/tar remover for anything nasty (eg; bugs, bird shit etc).

You might wanna ask Blaeven what he uses to get rid of shit though, as he's had some experience in that department.
