I'm pretty sure this is from a freshly paved parking lot I parked in. I got some Megs Bug and Tar remover and tried it out today while washing car. Washed panel first, then sprayed the Bug and Tar foam. Didn't dry panel before though so the foam just ran down. I was able to get smaller streaks removed with a microfiber and the Megs. The ones in tge pic won't budge. Any product suggestions?

Thanks in advance! https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181025/efcc277a6da016f4578e66a6e753ab08.jpg

I use CarPro Tar-X and tar has always come right off. I'm not familiar with the Meg's product. You might try spraying it on the car when it's dry so it has a little more time to dwell.

Are you sure it’s on top op the paint?

Some of the marks look like scratches or gouging.

Awesome!

That stuff works wonders. Hard to believe it doesn't have more of a following on here.
