Exclamation How Do I Get This Off???

When you are looking at the rear end of my car, there is a slight yellowy-brownish looking crap above my exaust. I'm guessing it's from the exaust fumes or whatever burning it a bit. I was wondering if any of you guys know how to get this stuff off? Or is permanant or what? It's not THAT noticeable but it's annoying when I do notice it. Will ANYTHING get this stuff off?? I took a quick picture of it so you guys can see what I'm talkin about. Just click on my sig and there is a close up picture of it in there. Any suggestions would be great. Just don't suggest stuff that's gonna take my paint off with it.

If it's not the paint burnt, you should be able to use some compound or paint cleaner to buff it off.

You should be able to buff that off. Mine has that a little bit too, luckily most of it came off with a little washing and a good amount of scrubbing . Good luck, that's a beautiful car. Gotta' love the TA's .

This may sound weird but..........my wife bought a couple of those "Mr. Clean" erasers to try.

Those damn things seem to clean everything that I previously thought was un-cleanable.

All it takes is water too.

They're amazing.
I'd say it's worth a shot, if it doesn't clean it - at least you still have something that seems to take dirt and grime off of everything under the sun.

Thanks, I'll try that. Hope it works. If not, I blame YOU!

Have u noticed that it is harmful to the paint on your car or anything? I used it today and it worked awesome but now I'm scared I might have harmed my paint.

No, although I didn't scrub too hard. I was just trying to get the bugs that seem to be inbedded in on the front of my car, near the grille.
