Fill up a spray bottle with some and add 1/2 oz of carwash soap to keep it from drying out...

After you've washed your truck of course....Mist the whole truck down and wait a minute....This will allow the tar to slightly run (so you can see where it is).

Next, go section by section with a soft nonabrasive bug/tar sponge.

If you can, let the product do the work...Don't be too eager to scrub it off...Let the stuff work for you. Work your way over the truck.

When done, Give it a final wash and hit it with a clay bar to get off any fallout and you're ready for wax.

There are some "citrus based areosol degreasers" that work really well also, but if you have a lot of tar you'll go through several cans. @ $6.99 a can...Kero or gas is cheap

Good luck and let us know how you made out so we can help other members.

Just thinking that hitting a truck with kerosene or gas and then having something ignite the fumes = flambe Titan!
