    First, Seeing as this is your first post on MOL, Welcome to the forum.

    I use a quick detailer spray or Ultimate Quik Detailer and a micro fiber towel. That should do the trick for you.

      I would get a bottle of a mist and wipe detailer product, and some quality towels/cloths. You don't want to use rags, and keep them separate from any oily rags. The Vroom Microfiber Towels at Target are pretty cheap and straight forward, and easy to wash.

      But you have a few products you can choose from.

      The regular Quick Detailer will be available at any auto store, and is something you can easily try out.

      If you like it, you could stay with it, or you could get a larger jug of something like Last Touch or Final Inspection if you are supplying a shop and want more for the money.

        Fresh oil smudges should wipe right off with the aid of a quick detail spray and MF towel. I'd use Last Touch, my go-to QD spray.

            Obviously depends how heavy the grease is.... The heavier it is, the more likely to smear around.

            I generally try to lightly spray the cloth and the area, then kind of part wipe, part blot the area when cleaning up something that might smear.

              I hear "jet clean" and dishwasher comes to mind.

                On those occasions when my car goes in for service, I tell the tech not to touch the paint. If he gets grease on it, leave it. I will take care of it myself. Some of those rags they use - I wouldn't wash my driveway with. It is nice to see you care for your customers paint.
