Any thoughts on getting road tar off the graphics? I just got home from work and noticed road tar on my graphics. Does Bon-Ami work on road tar on graphics?? It works great on a paint job but i don't know about graphics..

Hey man, Bon-Ami will work on the graphics but you gotta take your time. If the mud is fresh, it should work. Bon-Ami works great. I've used it for years and have been happy every time!!! Some places, it's hard to find the stuff.

steps to clean off graphics:

1.) hold hand in front of you and extend middle or index finger
2.) place finger at edge of graphics and with your chosen finger, slide your fingernail under the vinyl
3.) pull it off slowly and carefully so as not to rip it so its easier to take off
4.) once finished put all vinyl graphics in a pile
5.) remove any adhesive gunk left on paint with bug and tar remover or goo-gone
6.) squirt or dump lighter fluid or gasoline onto pile of vinyl graphics
7.) drop match into pile of graphics
8.) go inside and have a beer and think how much better your car looks without all those fucked up looking stickers ruining your paint

Are you really that stupid? Of course he likes his graphics on his car, or he wouldnt have them on there. Quit being an ***, he was asking a legitimit question.

Graphics are cheaper then a paint job.
