I would try white spirit, I used it to get rid of some very very heavily dried on tree sap. Just remember to wash it away thoroughly.

I use Autoglym on The Red Devil and if you take a gander in my gallery I think you will be satisfied enough to think she looks absolutely stunning (the car that is............not my ******* missus )

If have found 5 litres of petrol and a box of matches can also remove and bug stains or any other small imperfections on a car. The results are amazing how deep it cleans
