Damn door sticks

So one day, I left a shasta (faygo for you east coast folks) cola in my car. It got hot, expanded, and blew up. It sprayed the dash, the windshield, A/C controls, gauge cluster, and the passenger door. I've cleaned it up, but the damn door sticks. You can pull and the mug wont open until the handle is close to breaking.

Anyone got any ideas on how to get it to not stick? Every part of the door, from the hinge to the lock bar and everything in between has been windexed and soaped down and dry.

If it helps, the door was closed when the pop blew.

try cleaning it with SIMPLE GREEN or ORANGE GLO. stuff u would use to clean ur stove.

EDIT: the reason i say stuff u would clean ur stove with is cause sometimes ingredients u would cook with jump out the pots and stick to ur stove for example cooking oil when ur making eggs that crap stick to ur stove and my mom cleans it with AJAX and ORANGE Glo

Passenger door?

How can a cola can exploding muck your door that bad? Is it the rubber seals or the actual locking mech?
