Bill...
I've been using Collinite #845 Insulator Wax for years to remove bug guts and
tar from my vehicles. Collinite wax products are hard to find in stores (but can
be found on the internet). This insulator wax has zero abrasives and will not
remove any existing wax products from your car.
Actually, for shine and protection, I find Collinite #845 and Collinite #915 very
hard to beat.

p.s. I pick up my first Boxster today....a 2003 base gray/gray, certified, 2900 miles.

Hi,
Agree Sal Zaino is a helluva guy, hope you have the chance to meet him in person sometime - he's a hoot! I've always said that the Zaino Brothers are the automotive equivalent of Ben & Jerry...
WD-40 will work and will flash off without hurting the paint. Personally, I prefer PrepSol and have not found it to adversely affect the finish...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

OK, Jim, I may have you beat! I have not met Mr. Zaino, but I have met Ben Cohen from Ben & Jerry's! During a meeting with him, he actually presented a bar graph made out of Oreo cookies! One of his all-time favorite foods!!

Oh you people have just opened up a can of worms...
I boarded a Continental flight and sat next to Patrick Duffy. He turned around and said something to a travel companion behind him, and it was none other than Larry Hagman and his wife. The voice was unmistakeable. They were in LA for Johnny Carson's funeral last year. I'm just old enough to remember their hay days of TV.
However, nothing beats my memory of sitting next to Robert Englund (Freddie Krueger) on a flight a couple of years back. He was a complete jackass to me and everyone on the plane. He actually turned his back to me after I asked him what brought him to Memphis... I did not recognize him without his makeup and really didn't care who he was.

Prolly not the best story to use as my third post, but I punched Jeremy Piven in his face once.
Once was all it took
