Avon Skin So Soft

Don't laugh, that stuff has like a million uses.

smooth peanut butter works also. Stay away from the chunky.

Also WD40.

That's happened to me before also. I used windex and it seemed to worl. So im just telling you what I used.

i had it on mine.
i used all purpose cleaner on it and sprayed some spot remover also....i picked off as much as i could, then wiped it nice so nothing could scratch it.
spot remover should really do it nicely (goo gone is the same thing i think)

goo gone, prepsol, wd40, bug and tar remover...all will work

make sure you wash the spot you treat afterwards and rewax!

WD-40..... spray it on. Go have a cup o'coffee.... come back and wipe it off with a rag. Don't use paper towels, they will scratch. Finish off with a wax/polymer polish of your choice. Viole'.... dunn and dunn.
