Default Best tar remover?

I have tried Clay and CG Quick Detailer/ARO with hard sponge for removing of tars from my paint, but i do not get rid of it.

Is there any liquid out there who can remove sticky tars/asphalt/sap on my paint?

I want the best of the best guys... i'm tired to use claybars and lube. Clay do not removes all the dirt. I want something who does!

somebody?

Autoglym Intensive tar remover is ok, 3M adhesive remover is fine also. Traminator works well but I heard it isnt good to use on paint.

I have the best luck with Rainex B&T remover after trying several products. It's a gel that is sprayed on, I let it dwell for 30 minutes or more on tar and it just wipes off. Great stuff!

Prep Sol works great for tar..or just plain ole Diesel fuel...thats what the road crews use to remove tar and its paint safe...will not harm paint...

Now Tarminator contains Zylene..its been known to do damage to certail paints and soften plasic trim..many posts on it on other forums doing this...It did it to me also on a truck bed mat...

one guy on another forum did a brand new Crossfire and it stained and ruined the plastic grill and trim..another had it soften paint on a honda I believe ..when he wiped the paint his MF stuck to the paint and it smudged....Stoners did pay to have it fixed...but I will not use it again myself after it softened my bedliner

I use just Diesel now in a spray bottle
