A more aggressive clay bar will work.

I have something like that on my Civic. Mine is like stains in the clear coat and won`t come off with Zaino, Mothers, or Sonus clay or Menzerna IP with green CCS pad. I just learned to live with it.

I`d be looking at a solvent to remove that stuff as soon as possible. Use a good Tar remover, sovent based cleaner or try WD 40 on the spots.

Another vote here for WD-40. Let sit for a few minutes, take a designated microfiber and they will come right off. Looking forward to seeing the afters!

That was a car that needed to be stolen. You did a nice turn around for her. Hopes that she likes her Christmas present.



Does the Z7 work well with a foam gun.

did the folex get all the carpet stains out and did you use an extractor?

Yeah, just rinsed the carpet (not pressure washer), sprayed folex and agitated, then vacuumed.
