Dried dog drool spots?

So...my rott loves Critter (aka my 07 MCS) to the point where I have dried dog drool spots on the dash and door/window areas. Pointers on how to get them off? I clean fairly frequently but even regular cleanings w/ a microfiber cloth and warm soapy water don't actually get the spots off...I know I'm missing something, right? What would you all suggest?

Try a 50/50 Solution of Simple Green and Water!! I've got 2 4-Legged 60 Lbs. Bundles of Joy myself, BUT they do not go near Molly!!

Just a tip....if your going to simple green be sure to wax the panel that you use it on. That will strip things down....not to mention how harsh it is on the paint surface. Wax will help to protect it again. Just an FYI......

Nix Harsh Cleaners

Aerospace 303 works very well and will not harm interior finish painted, vinyl seats or plastic trim.

With the dried stuff just be patient and let the cleaner soak in and a good microfiber towel will lift it up and off the surfaces.

My sidekick and constant companion leaves drool and nose prints so I am used to cleaning them up. I have also found that using good interior detailing products on a regular basis makes cleaning up a lot easier.

this is true! using your detailing products regularly, (i prefer Nero from prima), but 303 works well too.

let it soak in and then take an MF to the surface after a minute or too and all should lift off.

for windows i like invisible glass in the aerosol can. works well on my dogs noseprints.
