Oil on the belly of the aircraft & the occasional streak around the cowl
, , , Bugs on the leading edge & struts . . . fingermarks around the
baggage door . . .
I use Turtlewax bug & tar remover in a trigger spray bottle - about
$4.00. - spray on, leave one minute and wipe off. So far has worked
really well and I haven't seen any negative side effects.
What do you use?

I buy el-cheapo windshield washer fluid. Works well on the painted surfaces,
but I have not used it on the plexi.

REJEX, but it's like 20 bucks a bottle because somewhere on the label
it says "airplane". Works well as a preventative, but I'm trying the
Turtle Wax this week!.
