Stubborn tar fleck removal?
Discussion
Folks,
Washed car y'day, but did not want to apply too much elbow grease until I got your expereince on the following:
At first glance car now loks clean. However, when looking closer as only a cleaner would do, there are minute black spots ( must be dirt, or tar when I drove through a re-surfacing stretch). What is the kindest and most effective removal means please?
Thx.

Clay bar - keep it wet as you move it over the paint - I generally use the water hose gun held on a very fine slow spray as I work over the panels with the bar. Works a treat - if you want to spend some more cash you can even by various claying lubricants from the usual suspects. Follow the instructions though - there are some simple rules to follow when using the bar.
I'd reccomend Auto Glym Tar remover , just spray it on and leave for a few minutes , you'll actually see it desolve the tar right in front of you.
Clay bar's are excellent for removing tar spots but you'll always have the risk of dragging the removed tar over the paintwork .
This is why we always go over the car with tar and adhesive remover first before claying.
Clay bars remove all the airborne contamination that abrasive waxes can't remove . They leave the paint silky smooth with a natural shine

I'll try it. Is T-cut a no-no?

T-Cut is abrasive. You want a chemical reaction to melt/dissolve/shift the tar.
