    There is a huge casino being built up the road from me and so they decide to repave my road. Now i have all this fresh tar on the bottom of my car. I took it through one of the car washes where you use a power washer to clean it and it left a bunch of it on my car. Any suggestions as to how to get the tar off of my car?

    go to auto zone or what ever you got around you and get "bug and tar remover" that stuff works great.

    id suggest wait till the road is done before you do anything.. it isnt permanent.. just wait it out. cause its just gonna happen again.. take it to a detailer and have him buff ur entire car. make sure u tell him what u want him to take off though.. point out the tar.

    In addition to what previous postes recommend.... after you get it cleaned wax that area good.....Give it a few coats...It helps take out the tar much much much more easily if it happens again...

    My car has been waxed every single month ive had it and nothing nothing sticks to it...But when it does like tar (damn little blackdots) they come off easily...
