i had this on my saxo, got stuck behind a smoky old 4x4 one night, next day in the sun the screen was smeared and impossible to clean and see through. turned out it was oil!!! loads of fairy liquid and water should help and a cheap spounge, then a good scraper should remove whats left

No the reason u dont use fairy liquid is because it has an agent in it that removes greese (like off your dirty plates and pans etc) but it removes the wax from your bodywork, leaving it un-protected
