Unhappy Removing baked on mud

After going mudding a while ago I was dumb enough not to wash my Bronco right away. After sitting in the Florida sun for entirely too long, the mud will not completely come off. I used a pressure washer and it washed the top layer of the mud off, but there is still almost like a film where all of the mud was on the paint. I can feel a slight film where the mud is when I run my finger over it. I have tried scrubbing it and cannot get it to come off. What would be my next step to try and save my paint? Thanks!

Aaron

First I would try some wax/grease remover. The next step would be a mild rubbing compound.

What would be a good wax/grease remover? Is that something I can purchase at an auto parts store? Thanks.

You sure can. Look for tar and grease remover. You should be able to buy it in pint cans, located in the detail (wax, car wash, & etc.) section
