How do you care for your car? What wash, wax, tire treatment, etc. do you use? I've got some bitchass road tar on my car and I need to figure out how to get it off.

road tar is tricky, but i've been successful by spraying it, then washing it, then once dry with my fingernails taking it off slowly and carefully(not to scratch the clearcoat) be ready to spend a good 2-3 hours for the whole process dependng how bad it is. then after i get it off i go over it with wax to make sure its goood, and t take off any fine scratches i may ave caused with takin it off

Bug And Tar Remover made by Turtle Wax is me and my civic si's front bumpers best friend...
Damnnnnned them bugs!!

Works like a charm...some spattered bugs requires lots o' scrubbing though.

Easy, drive the car through a Touchless Car Wash, then drive really fast to make sure it's nice a and dry.

I've done that before, but with the warm tempatures here in Texas, I end up having more water spots.

I use nothing except Meguiars and Mothers. I use a dual action polisher to polish my car made by meguiars, and basically clean and wash the inside and outside of my car every couple of days!!!!
