Track day clean up
What is everyone using to clean up rubber 'spatter' after track days? I was gonna try a tar/bug remover or a isopropyl product, but thought I'd ask seeing if there was something out there that works better.

Yep, it truly is as magical as people make it sound.

I ceramic coated my car before the last track day and it made clean up a lot easier. Most of the rubber marks came right off, but a few required a little scrubbing.

Hahaha! That is amazing. I tried using a high end detailing spray first and nothing really happened. Broke out the WD and shazam! Just wiped off without pressure or scrubbing. What a product.

Just a little dab of mineral spirits on a rag. Quick wipe and off. Have a wet rag in other hand to wipe of the mineral spirits.

All the track rats I know use Mothers R3, this is what it's made for and works like magic, very little elbow grease required and no adverse effects.
