WigsVR6 0 Posted February 19, 2009 Hi I noticed a bead of engine oil on the roof of my car. Does anyone know of any tips of how to remove it safely before I make a pigs ear of doing it myself. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WigsVR6 0 Posted February 20, 2009 I was in a rush posting this. The oil is heavy and black looks like old oil from a diesel engine. I am worried about scratching my paintwork if I remove it. So far Ive just dabbed it away with a clean cloth. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fla 9 Posted February 21, 2009 wd40 or some other light oil on a rag. Spray on leave for a while and carefully wipe off. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WigsVR6 0 Posted February 21, 2009 Thanks for the response guys wd40 did the trick followed by a wash with a sponge ive never used before so i wouldnt contaminate the rest of the paintwork with the oil. :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
