Comments on How to Remove Tar From Fabric

I had big, black tar spots on the butt of my jeans. I poured a little olive oil all around each spot, then scrubbed with an old toothbrush (harder bristled). The tar scrubs away, but doesn't stain the jeans. The oil loosens the tar, then keeps it from reattaching elsewhere. I rinsed the oil suds away from the pants with cool water, then poured a little more oil on the remaining spots and repeated. Within 15 minutes, the spots were completely gone. I hand-washed the jeans in lukewarm water to remove the olive oil, and now they are clean as ever.

It's a miracle. If you can get hold of Ambersil Amberclens foaming cleaner, a British company based in Basingstoke then it's a cinch. Spray the effected area liberally, leave it for a couple of minutes. Use some hot, soapy water and a scrubbing brush and scrub it away. In no time the tar gone. Keep applying foam while you scrub if needs be. It's a life saver.

Scrape tar off with a knife. Spray WD-40 on the stain and blot with a paper towel. After the tar and stain are removed, wash out the WD-40 with soap and water.

Spray WD-40 on the tar. It also works on tar stuck on your car.
