    Whats your technique for removing caked dirt on exterior cracks and crevices?

    Car damaged by "professional" detailers

    Dealing with tree sap.

    Go to CVS, Walgreens, local pharmacy. Get the highest proof Iso. Alcohol you can find, pour onto cloth and rub lightly takes it off quickly and safely. ReWax as needed.
