C-Tar Melt
Water Soluble, Non-Hazardous, Powerful Tar Melting Penetration
C-Tar Melt is a blend of water soluble, non-hazardous ingredients that give exceptionally powerful penetration and softening action. Do not dilute the product with water; product action will be stopped with the application of water. It is biodegradable and will aid in the separation of the tar residue from the rinse water if you contain and store the runoff for a short period of time. The ingredients do not harm the skin, however skin will dry out if constantly exposed to the tar remover.
C-Tar Melt is safe for wood, metal, brick, and masonry surfaces, and will not raise the grain or cause discoloration of the surface on its own. This is a powerful penetrating system, so the best method of tar removal from a painted vehicle is by putting a small amount on a cloth and wiping. Some softening of the paint may occur (that will be stopped upon rinsing), but it is very important to always check the reaction before leaving C-Tar Melt on the surface.
