Is this in the wheel well? Or on the paint.

On the paint use Joe Gibbs engine degreaser. Look it up on their website, it works awesome and does not harm the paint. In the wheel well, I just use a plastic scraper.

There is also new product from Mothers called R3 Racing Rubber remover, personally I have not tired it yet, but likely will to see if it is any better than the JG product. Not sure if that is possible, the GJ is good.

Good luck!

Stoner makes a product called TARMINATOR.

Unbelievable stuff. Breaks down the rubber/tar etc almost instantly.

I picked it up at an O'reilly's
