Sometimes tougher than shampoo can handle (like road tar and such). Try a clay bar if cannot then go for polish. Meguair's got clay bar/quick detailer kit. Look for it in Carrefour or autobacs or stamford tires.

I have been using Klasse All in one on my car and at times, it removes stubborn stuff better than anything else (rain marks is no hope one).

I would recommend the Klasse AIO as it's a chemical and it's non abrasive so it will not take away the clear coat of your paint.

Any brand of polish will do the job. Even the cheap Malaysian brand WAXCO is fine.

Clarence, wd40 can help?

WD40 helps only if the stain is still new and has not penetrated into the paintwork.

If it is an old stain, polish works best.

WD40 will not harm your paint's gloss coat.

I have tried it on my car paintwork to remove tar spots before.

Best way to apply WD40 is to SW1W

- Spray  WD40
- Wait 1 minute
- Wipe it off

Interesting...easier to remember the SW1W rule... :bleh:

I also park my ride open-space carpark...usually polish a layer will get rid of the yellow stain... usually its some sort of fruit or bird poo  :mad:
