Wax?
#11
So I've got little speckles of tar along the bottom of the doors, running boards, and the front bumper. I can't seem to get it off, without going and picking each one with my fingernail. I've tried orange cleaner, Simple Green, some type of compound my dad had(not sure what it was), Bug and Tar Remover, and wax. Nothing seemed to get it off. Is there something else you guys would recommend, short of going and picking each spot with my finger. (In that case, I'll be back in July...lol)

WD-40 does amazing things.
When i was down in aruba snorkeling a shipwreck, it somehow still leaks oil, from 1942... well of course i got it all over me. The captain on our boat had WD-40 and wiped me down... Not the best experience, but yeah... cleaned me right up.

So after class tonight I went to Auto Zone just to check out the different waxes. I stood there for about 10 minutes, until I decided I wanted to try the ICE Liquid Clay Bar, for $15. (Does anyone know how that works? I'm assuming I shouldn't use it if I just waxed the car...) Anyways, So I took it to the register, and it rang up at $0.01. Seriously. The girl asked me if I had a penny, which I didn't...I only had plastic, so she said this one's on the house, and handed it to me. Pretty good deal, wouldn't you say???
Best of all, I did get a receipt for it!

I'm a little hesitant to use an actual clay bar, since I've never done it before, and I don't want to screw anything up. I don't quite understand the whole lubricate it with soap. Figure I'll stick with easy stuff for now.
Oh, and I did buy Turtle Wax Chrome Polish for $2 at Wal-Mart.... Not that my chrome isn't shiny enough, but maybe I can blind the other drivers a little more!

clay bar is easy and you dont even need to use soap. water alone works well also. you just spray a lil water down so that the clay gets slippery and go to town. i think there is a how to on this as well.
