Hiya Dean

Glad you made it back safe with your new toy!

I personally used 'vanish' applied with some damp kitchen roll 
applied with the grain of the bodywork and then washed off and 
sprayed some of DMUK new cleaner / polish over it.... the vanish gets 
off loads of black muck and the cleaner leaves a shean covering over 
it.   Any stickier bits .....have you tried metholated spirits or 
even white spirit  (((   Just avoid any paintwork :)    )
