Well, I'd never do this to a British car! (I've had four, and some of them
would die going through a puddle).  But I've never had a problem over the
years with the SAAB, Volvo, Acura or Mazda (avoiding a few spots or covering
them up).  On the VW, I've treaded more cautiously, though--sponge rather
than spray--since I'm more wary of the electrical system.  The main point is
that simple green seems to be at least as effective as those harsh GUNK-type
cleaners and a whole lot more user-friendly (and earth-friendly too).
