get yourself a clay kit. took me 2 hours to do mine but it will take all the crap off the paint (tree sap etc) and leave it smooth as. even brought the colour back as well.

Windolene takes all the sap off with no messing.
its good on the glass but ive made a mistake using it on the windscreen ive just been out in the rain and icouidnt see feck all out of it totaly foggy

iwont be using it again but its brilliant on getting the tree sap off

Yeah I find clay bars very good for cleaning up paintwork, including a load of stuff you can't even see. Gotta get some more of that...

I use Rain-X on all the glass except the rear passenger windows - in heavy rain at 100-120 km/h I barely have to use the wipers at all. It doesn't work too well if you don't keep the glass clean enough and you have to re-apply it every month or so, but besides that it's great.

Yup iagree with you Zilog clay baring a car is most probs the best way of getting a car looking good,
the Windolene thing was just an acident, spilt it down one side of the car & it went every where,but the end result wasnt too bad it had actualy done me a favour in the end and saved me alot of time as it got all the Green tree sap off,
its done the same job as T-cut aspose but less abrasive,
igot a good coat of Merguiars on today so it will be ok for a month or so now me hopes,
Next time iwill clay bar it tho Me thinks,

as for Rain-X ive used it before and ididnt rate it idont think its efect lasts very long and its not cheap idont think,
