Tips
I seen this online and my car had a lot of tar on it after my we ran over what we thought was water. So we used WD-40, you just have to spray a large amount until its pretty damp on it. Then wait for a good 3 to 5 minutes on it. Then take a dry rag and start working on it. You may have to do it more then once but it will come off. For larger amount of tar on the car, just put a heaver amount on it more then once. It will come off, next wash, dry and re-wax. I didn’t believe but it work and also there no damage on the paint itself. Remember use a rag (teary cloth.
I have always found that WD-40 does a good job. Just spray on, wait about a minute then rub off. You may need to apply again for tough spots. Rewax after.
To take tar off of your car spray on engine cleaner. Spray, let sit for 15 minutes then lightly rub with your fingers until loose. Then rinse off with hot soapy water and re-wax as it takes the wax off too.
Caution, do not apply in sun and do not let it dry or it will damage your paint!
Sap from most trees can be cleaned off using Turpentine
Try using gasoline to take off tar. It removes it fairly easily, without messing up your paint job.
