    guys, what is your recommended tar remover?

    can't seem to appreciate a clean shiny car with specks of tar underneath and at the lower sides. is it true that it takes time to totally remove tar from your car even with the tar remover applied?

    hope you could help on this? thanks. :wink:

    mel: tar is aspalto... black, gummy dots you see on the side of the car (near the tires) comes from the tar that is poured onto the road during road repairs.

    pyongyong... i like using spray-type tar removers like 3M Tar Remover (P169 a can) if there are A LOT of tar sa car (it rhymes!)... but for spot treatment, a thicker type of tar remover will be less messy (like polyglaze tar remover). Diluted kerosene will work as well but it gets quite messy and streaky, kerosene is not a solvent, it will not remove paint.

    All tar removers will remove wax instantly, so make sure you re-wax the surface after you use a tar remover.

    KEROSENE is the best!!!

    Ilagay mo lang sa sprayer bottle para di messy gamitin. Just a few sprays and 20 seconds then bingo!!! Magsisimula nang humulas yung aspalto!!! Sundan mo nalang ng basahan plus extra sprays ng kerosene to finish it up!!!

    Works really fine with my big L300 Van!!! And cheap too!!!

    Pero sabi nga ni theveed, make sure to re-apply you wax after to restore the paint protection!!! :wink:
