Hydralic fluid embedded in paint?
I bought a white iroc that had been sitting in a garage for the past 15+ years. When I got it home and started to clean it up, I noticed an oily residue on the paint. I called the previous owner and he said that a pressurized hydralic hose had burst in the garage covering everything. I plan on getting the car painted eventually but how do I get this stuff off in the meantime?

DO NOT USE DISHWASHER SOAP PLEASE! I may sound like a idiot here, but I've personally seen dish soap scratch the clear right off of my buddy's car. There is a mild abbrasive and sand like material in some soaps. Please just buy some degreaser same for cars.
