I need some help. I parked under a tree last night at a hotel - no choice but to park in that spot. When I came out this morning, my wife's 2004 Ford Escape (white) was covered in what looks and feels like tree sap.
After driving home this afternoon, Smooth Surface Clay worked great on the windows. I'm assuming it will also work on the paint but I won't have time to really work on it until Friday night when I plan to wash and clay it and then go into polishing and waxing on Saturday morning.
My question is, what is a good method for removing the sap from all of the unpainted plastic (dark gray body cladding, bumpers, black mirrors, black door handles, black windshield cowl, etc.) and rubber (wipers, window trim) from the car without damaging those surfaces?
While we're at it what is a good LSP for those same surfaces to maintain color and give it a nice finish without being overly wet and greasy - just a nice simple cleanliness with a matte / low gloss finish?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
