Default tar removal

Hello,

Has anyone used 3M General Purpose Adhesive Cleaner to remove road tar from their Vette? I saw it in a car catalog and I was wondering how it worked.

Nope, but Stoner's Tarminator and WD-40 usually work well.

Yes, I have. Works well. I also use Wurth's cleaner.

They all work very well. WD-40, Tarminator, even Poorboys Bug Squash. It is one product that seems necessary in all detailing aersonals.
