Hunter, did you have any cosmoline in your engine bay on the iS? This thing is horrible and i dont have too much experience getting it off, the black car cleaned up real well with just rubbing compound.

Ive been playing with this tonight after reading your post.
I found using Simple Green with a white scuff pad(

Works pretty good. It takes time but doesnt chew up the paint.
A little gasoline to soften it up, then at it with the simple green and scuff.
Then polish it up with some compound, then wax. Comes out great.
Ill post some pics tomorrow.

I saw simple green might work, im going to try some of that, and probably a scuff pad or even wet sandpaper then go back over it.

im going to try to make it back down to reisterstown here one weekend, so let me know if you'd like to meet up.

Really? Wow, I guess I was wrong all this time! I thought the 318i engine was a little bit less powerful than the M42.

BAN.

Nice pick up Jon!
