The oil change place spilled coolant on my serpentine belt. It started squeaking, so they gave me a can on the belt dressing spray. That made it way worse. How do I get all that sticky stuff off my belt and moving wheels?

if you are sure the belt is the noisemaker it must be worn and needs replacing or your tensioner is not working/tight enough.
