Rubber tyre bits on paintwork
 

I think my car has lots of little rubber bits off the tyres from cornering. The little rubber bits are on the back of the front arches and along the doors.

I have tried cleaning them off before but they don't really come off with shampoo and a cloth/sponge. It is almost as if I need to scrape them off with my nails or a scraper.

Does anybody else experience this problem and have a solution.

are you sure this is not Tar off of he road :wonder:

if so there are many Tar removers on the market that wll do the job :thumb:

I get rubber bits on track days, never sure if it's off of my tyres or the people I'm following. The R888's I use on track do like to "shed" rubber quite a lot during sessions, but the blobs stuck to my car are so big that I can just gently take them off by hand.

Yours is probably tar, a good bug/tar remover will take it off.

thanks guys. I assumed it was rubber and didn't think about tar.
