Default Skid plate -- clean 'er up?

Curious if anyone has a good suggestion on how to get random road debris crap off of the front skid plate? Silly question, I know.

Thanks!

Pressure wash. If you don't have one find one of those car washes where you deposit coins for time on the sprayer.

What sort of random road debris do you have on there that's hard to get off? Pictures please.

Damn picture is too small.... sorry.

Here, try this one... YEAH, I know, the skid plate is crooked back when this was taken.



The only problem is you have to stay with it. I haven't polished it in at least 6 months... it'll clean up by washing it but it really needs to be polished again.

I have used Simple Green to clean up the Skid Plate, and it worked very well for me.
