Title: Tar Spots
Post by: Boiler Man on 15 September 2009, 17:14:03

Hi Guys

Can anyone recommend what is best to remove tar spots.

I'm getting a nice collection of them at the mo with all the local road works.

I've tried the expensive Ha**rds pupose made stuff in the past and it was rubbish. :-/

tar removers are best for the job but also
any paint protector or G3 alone is ok..

but petrol will make the surface dull..
