I dunno if I'd pour acetone on my clearcoat. I hear thermite does wonders, though. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

sandpaper.

A soft towel liberally dampened with Xylene should do the trick.

Just make sure you do not get carried away with rubbing the problem area too much, and be sure to wash, clay, clean, polish, and protect, these area's immediately after.

Xylene will ruin paint if you are careless with it.

However, when used properly, it can be an exceptionally valuable product to have in your detailing arsenol.

I just used some Gunk, Bug, Tar Remover stuff. It just smelled like WD-40, but the tar/sticky black stuff all down the side of my truck just wiped right off.
