    Removing tar from bumpers?

    Hi, I need to remove some tar spec's of the grey nova bumpers but I normally use autogylm but I'm afraid it will stain the bumper? Any suggestions of is the Autoglym stuff ok, I'll be redoing it with bumper care after though.

    Tar remover will most likely stain yes. Gonna be acase of hot soap water and picking it off.
    Almost boiling water might help lift it, but cant say if it will damage the surface, so try it some where out of the way first.
    I'm louder than gods own revolver and twice as shiney.
