    How do you attack a car full of tar~

    The tar removers are just a weak version of kerosene and all of them will remove your LSP. Kerosene is cheaper and works better. Any stories about it doing harm is just internet BS I have been using it on my cars for 60 years just wash it off with soap and water then polish and apply your LSP
