Steps used:
Rinse with water
2 buckets and two large cotton mitts
Super Slick & Suds about 1/2 ounce in one bucket other bucket clean water
Sprayed tar area with Bug Squash and proceeded to wash car from roof down
rinsing and chuning mitt #1 after each panel in clean water, rinsing each panel after washing
Used mitt #1 on upper half of car and then put it aside...
Used mitt #2 to start washing below the moulding line...started with the rear area where tar was the worst and it came off like butter, the tar had practically disolved with the Bug Squash...continued with same procedure of doing a panel and rinsing mitt and panel.
Then came the wheels:nono ...my wife had driven through some fresh tar and some of it was pretty thick.:eek Sprayed on Spray & Rinse on all four wheels and waited a few minutes also made sure it didn't dry on the wheels...first rinse removed 90% of the tar and all the brake dust...the tar had been on for a couple weeks and it showed.

Re-applied S&R and aggitated with a soft brush over the thick tar, then rinsed...99% of the tar is gone but it looks like the wheels may need a little polish to finish the job completely.
When it came time to dry the car, it was almost completely dry (EX-P applied before Thanksgiving) , I used some Spray & Gloss and a Waffle weave and went over the whole car...only one Waffle Weave towel was needed and dried the wheels with an old cotton towel. Sprayed on some Bold N Bright on the tires, cleaned up and took a shower. Came back and gave the tires a quick wipe with a sponge applicator to make sure it was even and called it a day as I had other things and work to do...
Well that was my treat for my Birthday
