Honestly... try bug and tar remover... you can find it anywhere. Pretty much every department store or auto store will have it. It's cheap, and it works. I had weird gunk on my car last summer that nothing even touched, until I tried bug and tar remover. It works miracles.

Use cotton towels to remove the tar. The tar remover will take off every bit of wax so make sure that you seal or wax once the tar is gone.

Pick one! You will recieve any many responses as there are waxes. Any tar remover will strip EVERYTHING off of the paint so it must be protected afterwards. Check this thread for a super easy to use product with showcar results. Our administrator does use it on his showcar as do many peeps here on their daily driver......including yours truly.

Used gasoline in a spray bottle to get some especially heavy tar off. As mentioned above use wax afterwards. Good Luck.
