I thought about washing up liquid but wasn't sure if it damaged the paintwork, but I'm probably thinking about something else entirely. Confused

just looked at my post on the car forum and autoglym seems to be the answer!! autoglym seems to be the brand and they do various car things like tar removers, polishes waxes etc so will give them a try and let you know how i get on. it is highly recomended on that forum for your car cleaning needs!
