Same here, minus the Steigermud of course.:-) Actually the combination
works quite well if you use one of those small sponges encased in nylon
mesh. (available at most auto supply stores) I use that with the ammonia on
the outside of the glass and with plain warm water on the body. No, it
doesn't scratch the paint either.
For Steigermud you might consider a sand-blaster.:-)
