IPA worked great on the plastic trim the sap just disappeared!

I'll give it a try. It's my daily driver but I'm trying to keep it as nice as possible.

Instead of starting a new topic I'll piggyback to this one in hopes of keeping the info in one thread. Would the same procedure work if you had tree sap on the rubber trim around a door window?

Optimum spray wax

So let me ask this. Is there a way to determine how much clear coat only is on a car, or can you only measure clear coat plus paint?

I'll have to say that a paint thickness gauge would be a cheap tool compared to the tools I buy and use every day.

Thanks for the links. A friend of mine works at a body shop. He is the painter. I might see if he has a paint gauge I could borrow or use to see what I'm working with. It might give me a better idea if I want to tackle the job or not.

F it nevermind

Here is what I'm working with

It's just frustrating to buy a $65k+ truck and not be able to get the finish I want because of a sub par factory paint job. Eric from Trueshine lives in my area, maybe I should just have him do it and put a sealant on it while he is at it.

^^^ wowza!
