If it is just the tyre rubber marks then use a kids eraser as irt is a form of carbon at the end of the day

The rbber is hard, and in places where it was thicker would chip off. What's the rotational speed of the rim of a tyre at 30 mph? :-? what ever it is, that's what it was doing on the side of my 'van.

G3 range was mentioned by a lad from ABS. I've not had chance to buy anything like it yet, but I assume it's another abrasive.  :-/

G3 by Farcella is a cutting paste for paintwork, a bit like t-cut on steroids :y

Toothpaste? T-Cut? Really, you're looking for a very very mild abrasive to cut through the mark and, hopefully, leave what's underneath intact.
