Couple options; clay bar, paint thinner, terpentine, gasoline. Try them and see how they turn out.

I agree with shnormo, Clay bar should be first, the least damaging.

Assumeing you have the factory finish or a good aftermarket paint job none of the products mentioned by Shnormo should damage the paint. Just you wax job but that can easily be redone.
