Detail/cleaning advice please.
Bloody tree sap!!!
I use the wifes car for work and sometimes have to park under a tree. Those who have done it will know that by the end of the day, you will have tree sap all over the car!
I washed the wifes car yesterday and once i had dried it i found that the small spots of tree sap were still there!! Is there anything specific that i could use to get this off or am i left with T-cut and elbow grease?
The other piece of advice i was after is, is there any kind of polish out there that can be used to give the car a quick shine for things like, show and shine and simular? I was thinking something like a "Mr Sheen" type product rather than a liquid polish as i was thinking of polishing the car properly first then giving it a quick and easy polish/shine ready for an event or something.
Thanks in advance for the advice,
Ian

As stated above m8......clay bar will do the job,you can pick a kit up at halfords, use plenty of lube on there otherwise the clay will stick to the body work and cause marring,once gone wipeover with a polishing cloth and re-wax so the paint is protected again.
Autoglym super resin polish is polish and protect in one and can be done by hand then you could use extra gloss protection on top then when wanting to give it a quick shine use a quick detailer ( spray and wipe off ) which is what you will get in with the clay kit as lube.
