    I would use a lot of Sudsy Soap and a soft spray of water like a shower the suds and water should help float the ash off. use a lambs wool mitt and you should be ok, Do small areas at a time don't rub hard Had to clean of CHP cars up north after fires up there way back in the day also ash and soot from Mt St Helens that drifted down. No much but enough to see on the black hood and deck lids. Try cleaning that red Borate fire retardant off same type of cars.

    I don't know what you call it, just body moulding I guess. Mine came off too in the car wash but I was lucky enough to have it hanging down the side of the cab. A few squirts of exterior adhesive (Lexel) and it was back in place.

    Valcanic ash? Try air first. Ash likes to turn to cement when wet. If properly waxed light air from a air compressor works. Just wear a good respirator, you dont want to breath the ash.

    I love how their description says "Bluetooth and XM compatible". Yeah, no kidding, the radio antenna has nothing to do with either of those two.
    Still cool looking and I don't use my radio much.

    It's mostly carbon, which isn't really hard but will smudge like a pencil. Try compressed air or a water spray.
