Re: Removing Tar?
I've tried many tar removers and the best thing I've found is actually plain mineral spirits. They oil chipped our road and mineral spirits was the only thing that would take it off. Also, diesel works decent on larger patches of it.

Re: Removing Tar?
i doubt mineral spirits will do anything to the undercoating inside the doors

Re: Removing Tar?
if you can reach it and dont mind the paint bubblin from the aplied heat on the outside of the door you could try an electric paintstripper and a putty knife for the worst part and finisch with the white spirit

Re: Removing Tar?
Where exactly are you talking about? Like on the interior? Or INSIDE the door, where the window is and everything? The mineral spirits does take tar off the body. Why would I lie about something like that?

Re: Removing Tar?
kerosene will disolve undercoating ... it's also flammable ... be careful
