what kinda products would you guys recommend to get off say like tar/ paint overspray and the likes from your rocker panels?anyone have any good ideas?

i did a search but never really found any specific products for these items

thanks

 

Get a good claybar. It worked wonders on my dark paint.

 

BigBlue is right. Claybar is the best for stuff like overspray. If it is your first time using it...just be ready to do a good handwax afterwards.

I have used Avon's Skin so soft to take off tar and bugs. Works great, but a little expensive, but I had connections, my mother was an avon rep. IT works great in a pinch if you don't have anything else around, also good at removing old bumper sticker adhesive.

 

Gas will take off the tar.

 

Ditto..... and its cheap. Wash with soap & water afterwards.

 

and where can you pick up this claybar? any auto store?

 

WD40 gets tar off, but make sure you clean it off and put new wax on.

 

ok...found it online and will be at the store tomorrow

 

At the car dealer I worked at many years ago we used varsol. Doesn't bother the paint at all. DO NOT use lacquer thinner or any other strong solvent! Wash after with soap and water to remove the varsol.

 

what exactly is varsol?just another cleaning compound?
