Default grease on white paint

We have been working on the car quite a bit lately and consequently, I have grease and oil fingerprints on my white paint. Also, the car had a seal go out a while back and a massive oil leak splattered oil on the back bumper.....I've washed and scrubbed with a towel and it's not as obvious, but the stains are still there. Do y'all know of anything I can use to get that off? Also, I was a little too enthusiastic and washed the metal Accord emblem right off the back end. (oops) Is there some special glue I should use to reattach that, I feel like the car is not too happy about it...lol.

I've used concentrated simple green for oil and grease, or pick up some "grease and wax remover". Just make sure you wash again with car soap afterwards and re-wax. As for the emblem, look for double sided tape; auto parts stores will sell it specifically for this.

Cool. Thanks a bunch. I'm going to head over there after work. I'm also going to see about "frequent flyer miles" lol. AutoZone is my second home...
