My windscreen has a waxy resin left on it after using a car wash - how to I clean it off?
My Subaru Forester has been hand washed in a commercial car wash that has left a film of wax/resin on the screen. I've tried several means of cleaning, including vinegar and Mentholated spirit - but to no avail. It's severely obscures my vision in bright sunlight. How do I clean it?

Mer windscreen cleaner that goes on as a liquid but dries to a mildly abrasive powder.
