TOP REVIEWS!! The best tar and contaminant remover we know, with a very fast-acting formula that dissolves stubborn tar spots and adhesive in an instant. Extremely effective, we highly recommend it!

King Carthur Tar Remover is the most effective tar and contaminant remover we know, and its very fast-acting formula dissolves pitch and tar stains stuck to paintwork and wheels in an instant. The product's hydrocarbon-based solvents also effectively soften adhesive, resin, bitumen, tree sap and, for example, insect residues and other very difficult dirt, which makes the product truly versatile. It can also be used, for example, to remove adhesive after taking off a car model badge, a wheel weight or even window tint film. King Carthur Tar Remover works excellently as part of a thorough car wash and whenever needed for removing the most stubborn tar spots. Because of its speed and effectiveness, we recommend the product especially for professional use!

Quick guide

  • Shake the bottle thoroughly before use. The sprayer has two settings: a narrow, pinpoint jet and a wide mist. Unlock the nozzle and turn it to the desired spray pattern. Spray the product onto the dry area to be treated, let it work for a moment and finally rinse off thoroughly with plenty of water. Do not allow the product to dry on the surface.
  • After removing tar and contaminants, it is advisable to do a light solvent wash, which at the latest ensures the surfaces are clean of any product residues.
  • Shake thoroughly before use. Do not use in direct sunlight or on hot surfaces. Do not allow the product to dry on the surface before rinsing it off.
  • General information about tar and contaminant removal: Removing tar and similar contaminants is one of the steps of a thorough car treatment, in which pitch, resin, sap, fuel and adhesive stains are removed from the car's paintwork and, for example, wheels. The pitch used for patching asphalt is a nuisance especially in the north, where frost damage creates a constant need for road repairs. Pitch and other similar contaminants do not come off paintwork with ordinary detergents, and in the worst case they can cause permanent damage to the paint by reacting with sunlight or heat. Removing them is a very important and essential step when thoroughly washing a car, and it is good to do at least a couple of times a year, in spring and autumn.
