Coderedpl Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 So thanks to my luck, a week after detailing the car, I was on my way to georgia from new york and went over some freshly paved asphalt with what seems to be fresh tack coat. I tried APC, no dice, waterless wash. nothing. Clay bar didn't really do anything either. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 crowvet Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Isopropyl Alcohol will work.... test area first and re wax and seal when done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Chewy Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I use the 3M adhesive remover, but Naptha works too! DO NOT GET ON PLASTIC!!!! BAD things happen! I put it on an Adams MF applicator and wipe. It's nearly instant at removing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Big O Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 As far as removing asphalt - citrius based stuff and/or wd40 is what we use to take it off our asphalt testing equipment. How that affects your automobile is unknown to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Coderedpl Posted May 18, 2013 Author Share Posted May 18, 2013 I purchased 3m adhesive remover aswell as some bug and tar remover from a different company. Many bottles later, most of it is off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
