Hi,
I only get to see my W123 once a week since I've been living in an area where I don't need a car. Last weekend when I went back to it, I noticed that the tree above the car dropped lots of leaves or whatever that left tons of tree sap stains and spots on the car. This weekend I plan on giving the car a thorough once over but I have a few questions about the sap. I plan on running my car through Meguiar's paint cleaner, then through a claying, then a polish (or two), then a wax (or two). Is this procedure proper? Should I do something to get rid of the sap first? Or will the paint cleaner take care of that well? Thanks for the tips!

Alex
