Cleaning Streaks & Tar Like Spots from RV

Every time I wash my RV, it comes out pretty good, but I always find streaks and tar like spots that did not come off, and it takes almost as much time to work on those than it did to clean the whole RV. Is there anything out there that could make this task easier?

Turtle Wax Tar and bug remover works well on petroleum type stains as well as organic.

WD-40 also works well for removing tar, one the few uses Id use it for on my rv.

Some one on this forum suggested this stuff for black streaks and it works like magic for me. It was hard to find locally but a can will last a long time.
