One word, Claybar!

Try washing it, if it doesn't come out, then claybar. Does the trick everytime.

Thank god something works. I have a sap mark that is 3 months old. No matter how many times I wash it, it doesn't help. Where do you get Claybar?

Wow Hen, I didn't know you were that clever. I have an issue with my exhaust. It looks like welds on the rear hangers are about to break and it makes this funny rattling sound when taking off from a stop. So I might be replacing the rear section of my exhaust with a NISMO exhaust. I think I am going to keep the JIC Y-pipe though. The design makes more sense to me. Rob is trying to find one for me because he sold out. Until it is replaced I am trying not too drive it that much. The last thing I want to do is show up for poker dragging my muffler behind me.

I used to get that on my cars... I'd always leave them and then they'd actually get hard after awhile. Then I could easily use my nail to chip them away... I know you aren't going to go this route, but my experience might be of some use to someone out there...
