Mrstridey:
Hi all,

I recently made the mistake of following my buddy out of brands hatch after he had track dayed his car!

My front end now has lots of flecks of rubber stuck to it  :sick:

Anyone got any clues how to remove it? If I scrub hard enough with a sponge it starts to come away (or using a nail it starts to move too)
But it's gonna take ages doing it this way!!!

Any ideas welcome please  :happy2:

Tar remover. Read the bottle, don't leave it on too long!

^^^^ this, also do it asap because it's only going to get harder to remove.

Autosmart Tardis :)

Spray on and leave it for a couple minutes then gently lift any significat bits, wipe over with a soft microfibre cloth.

Be aware that whatever you use is likely to remove any polish on the car so ideally you will need to reapply some protection.
Good excuse to go over the whole car and remove any tar and other contamination before adding your chosen protection.

Also worth adding another step and removing any iron contamination with a product such as iron x. All depends how far you want to go.

Would also ruin your paint, using a sponge does that anyway.

Use tardis.
