: Some people go the quick route and scrub, but I don't like to because of swirl marks. This method takes longer, but is easier on the paint.

: As a last resort, I use a clay bar.

: Finally, put a coat of wax on the affected area, as you've stripped just about everything off.

: I have found some terrific exterior car care tips on www.carcareonline.com. It is my favorite car care site. You can order a wide range of products, including Wurth and Sonax, by fax or phone at carcareonline.com. Service and pricing is very good.

: The message board sponsor, Autopia (www.autopia-carcare.com), also has a good tip section and a message board where you can post questions. Some products can be ordered online, some, like Zymol, are limited in availability.

: www.autofanatics.com, also a Message Board sponsor, sells car care products but does not offer much in the way of help.

: Finally, www.mobileworks.com, a site for professional detailers, also has a message board with some great tips for removing bugs, road tar, etc.

: While everyone can agree that the Roadster is a great car, few people agree on the best way to remove bugs, swirls, etc. And God help you if you open a discussion about Zaino vs. Carnauba!
