I know it`s good for wine making and meringues.:hungry:
Lol thats honestly the first time I ever heard of something like that but sense were talking about food on cars I do stand behind the clame that peanut butter is amazing on restoring car trim do to the varying degree of oils in it it's honestly something you ought to try if of caurse you have black trim on the exterior.

Did some searching and based on several sites, it looks like mixing it with vinegar is a pretty common cleaner.
Simply mix a couple tablespoons of cream of tartar with a small amount of white vinegar. There are no exact amounts; you want to end up with a thin paste. Start with about half a capful of vinegar and adjust accordingly. After doing it once you’ll discover the right consistency.
Apply it to the glass with a paper towel, a sponge or your fingers and wait two to three hours. Remove it — and the gunk — with a damp sponge and dry with a towel. If some stubborn spots remain, just do it again. This costs mere pennies per application and cream of tartar is one of the few things in the baking aisle with an indefinite shelf life. It will still be good five years from now.

If I had that kind of gunk on my auto-glass; and:
Was wanting to be very cost-conscience; and, also:
Wanted a product that will last, at the very least: five years...
I'd buy me some Meguiar's #4.
I already have some old terry towels.
Just saying.
