I am getting ready to do my white 06 crewcab silverado. It has been neglected sorry to say. I live in a rural area and the rear wheelwells are full of tar. The rear wheelwells have no liner, just paint. What`s gonna be the strongest and fastest way to get all that out of there? Thx.
I am gonna be doing ALOT of claying on the body also. I will get some pics up.

mineral spirits, Turtle Wax T520 Tar Remover, Meguiar`s Gold Class Bug N Tar Remover, Tarminator, WD-40 are just a few.

Tarminator
Just don`t put that stuff on a towel... or else you`ll NEVER get that god awful smell out.

Why not just smooth it out with a wire brush and spray the wheelwells with undercoating.

For a job such as this, I usually throw away the towel. But I don`t use Tarminator anyways.

O.K. thx for the input. I`d just trash the towel anyways cuz it`s gonna be nasty. A terry towel not a MF can`t throw them away lol.

Some degreaser and a pressure washer is what I would use.

I would too, but I was just making a reference to how much I hate Stoners Tarminator. I mean I can deal with products that smell bad if they work, but Tarminator is just so outrageously awful, I never want to touch the stuff again.

I`ve used Tarminator recently, I do not notice this "horrible, ridiculous, outrageous" smell you guys speak of? It smelled like nothing to me. I`ve tried it on some very thick tar underneath my sideskirts and it wouldn`t even get them out, not even close.
