The best thing to remove tar is a rag dampened with ordinary petrol.

A friend used that method once and it worked a treat, but took the paint off as well. Mind you that might have had more to do with the fire that followed as he was smoking at the time and the rag was more than damp. |

Remember that petrol dissolves the stain (and the paint) whereas Brasso (and T-cut) are very fine abrasives. So be careful how much you use - especially petrol  |

I have full autoglym treatment to apply, garage gave me the aftercare kit and the dealer kit. (Having already applied it to my car) So thinking of doing the wifes car. Probably best to get some of the autoglym tar remover to be on the safe side  |
