Hello to all...been a little busy the past few months or so, so I haven't been on as much as I would have liked.
One question for the heck of it. My dad has a '09 Sonata Limited and in the spring was going through a new construction zone and managed to drive through tar. Needless to say the tar got in some of the crevices of the spokes...but most of it landed in the inner part of the rim. Back then he asked me what to do and I told him to get it off right then and there, as if delayed the tar would bond to the rim. Well, he kept putting it off and putting it off and now he really wants to get them off. I told him that there might not be much hope since its been on the wheels for so long.
Tried to use Eagle One AZ Tire cleaner, didn't work...and the chunks are too big to use a claybar on. Bug and Tar remover didn't really work either. Anything else we can try? I'm pretty much settled on that it won't come off now without drastic measurements....but just thought I'd ask for other opinions. Thanks!
