Did you work at it for a while? You have to scrub it pretty good... I have found for stubborn stuff on an older car, some drastic measures can yield great results. A damp clitch with a light spray of a brake clean or a carb and choke cleaner can take any dark marks off a light colored car, but you have to be very careful about how much and how hard you press...

yea i used windex and it helped a little, i was thinking more in the lines of "GOO OFF" or something like that

i really like 'safecut' by 'the wax shop'. seems to do a really good job taking out swirl marks. after, i put on a big thick coat of meguiars carnuba.

any here use safecut? the wax shop also makes a glaze that i have been wanting to try.

i didnt read tomany of the post, But i use Mcquires, Wash Supplys and there Waxes.. they've been around For over 30 years... stuff is pricy, But you get what you pay for... they make a wax that you spray on while your cars wet and towel dry it off.. Gives a Real Nice Finish, then i use there Buffer Wax, and Wheel it... i dont think i have a pic of the car Before i bought it.. but it was Dule BAD... looked dark red and after i wheeled on it with the McGuires Products... She Was Cherry AGain!... ill post this now and if i can Find a B4 and AFTER photo ill edit and add in this post...
SO McGuires FTW~!.... once you use it once, you'll never use anything else..

Clean with dish soap or whatever random car soap I have, pressure wash it, scrub wheels with brush, then I hit it with some ICE by turtle wax, good **** and VERY easy to use, but Have a nice lint free cloth after a few days to give it a wipe down b/c it collects dust like a mofo.

yeah i have a micro fiber towel that is the Snap when it comes to cleaning the wheel dust after a Good Buffer job~!

the clay bar is designed to remove the deep "grit" that normal washing cant get and to prep the surface for wax not as a bug remover or tar remover....there is special stuff just for that.

what should i use to get bugs off(took a trip to WA) and greese marks?

After you get the bugs off try some of the Bug Preventive from Griots Garage as it makes it so much easier to clean them off next time around.
