Are the commercial tar removers any better than using petrol?

If so what is a good one?

Cheers,
Andy

There's quite a few Tar & Glue removers. I can't remember the brand that I have in the garage, but I'm guessing that chemically, they all have the same compounds and work equally well. The only crap ones will be those that are "green"

I have dealings with bitumen suppliers and their rep once told me to use olive oil. Don't tell yer missus it was me if you get caught taking it out of the kitchen!!
