Big blob of tarmac on the wheel
Finally got around to washing the car, first time in ages due to the poxy hosepipe ban
I've discovered a lump on tarmac well and truly stuck on one of the wheels which I would like to remove.
The wheel is a P1 OZ in Anthracite
Any suggestions gratefully accepted

Couple of options. Gentle heat setting on a heat gun to soften it, then pull and/or gently scrape the bulk of it off, then use a powerful all purpose cleaner like P21S to help shift the remainder. An alternative is to try using a tar and glue remover, but you need to excercise caution with these, and do a spot test first, as they can be very potent and soften paint and coatings. I'd be looking at careful application of heat, followed by a strong but friendly degreaser to help shift the rest.
