    IPA works amazing to clean glass, but if be a little wary about using it on paint. It's a pretty powerful solvent...

    Mine wasn't bad. It was black (likely from some recent forest fires), but only had a couple of small leaves and stems.

    I replaced it with a Fram/Arm & Hammer, so it's going in black on the "clean" side, with black showing through in spots on the "dirty" side.

    WD40 or Bug & Tar remover.
    Naptha in a pinch, but it's a bit harsh and will cause burns on more tender areas of your skin if left in contact for a while (like a freshly loaded Zippo in your pocket).

    very nice subwoofer solution... may have to copycat that (hopefully in the not so distant future, if it's in the cards for me!)
