on 6/22/2009 We used olive oil to remove tar that my son had all over his knees and legs down to the bottom of his feet. We used a toothbrush covered in olive oil to remove the tar from the bottom of his feet.
Great idea alohakgonz!! Thanks for the information!!

on 5/29/2009 I grew up in Satellite Beach, Florida, during the 1960's. We would go home and remove the tar with turpentine and a rag. Next, using the outside hose and a bar of soap, wash all the turpentine off.
