I ususally get it off with my hand first. Just rub it off or use the nylon brush I use for scrubbing my tires to get it off. I've found it's easiest to just do it dry with your hand.

Actually I think I still need to clean the rubber off from that burnout! I cleaned it off the bumper but not the wheelwells yet!
