Default grease or oil on paint left a haze?!

I took my car in to get an alarm installed last week and the guy that worked on it must have had greasy hands or pants(maybe?) because on the section right by the hood, there was a pretty good sized grease mark when I picked it up. I didn't think much of it because I thought it would come out readily with a simple car wash. I washed my car yesterday and that section still appeared hazy. I then used Final Inspection on that section with no luck. I emailed Sal Zaino about this to see if he had any suggestions. He said to try Dawn and then to clay it. I tried just claying it because I don't want to wash the car with Dawn until I receive the Zaino products and it seemed to improve it a little bit. Does anybody else have any ideas?

Thx

Ya, try a little WD-40 on a soft cloth and gently rub the area.

WD-40 works on just about anything...it's great on a Q-Tip for cleaning around the lug nuts.
