Last time I got a bunch of rubber on my car from the track, I used the clay bar which is a sure shot to get it off but requires a bit more effort.

Suggestion
nu finish car polish (polymer "wax") will easily remove the rubber, and also reseal the paint....i use it after track days in-between full wash/wax, and it removes the marks with no hard rubbing....i liked this option better than other options because it doesn't strip the wax already on the car...

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

So I know its not a 996 and I know its not a technical Q but I searcha little and thought there are a lot of you guys that keep your cars pretty clean. Sunday washing I notice that those bits that were hitting me while on the ars of the car in front of me in the turns left marks....
I have rubber "skid marks" (for lack of a better term) all over the place....front, hood, roof, winshield, lights
I used to have some 3M adhiesive remover but it dried up over the last 20 years and I need something for this job. I am pretty much looking for something I dont have to spend $40 on...maybe someone has a simple solution.
anyhow, thanks for your advice and postings....need to clean her up once in a while, after all I only have a few days of sun in this area before the rain comes back....

Ed: Products mentioned above work great. Another idea, while you're already putting the energy into it is to use one of the synthetic clay bar products...pulls about everything off of all exterior surfaces & leaves it squeaky clean. Hit it with some gel wax & go.
Ed, Mothers makes a track rubber remover in spray bottle. However, I think you will have to order online. There was a thread a while back inthe GT3 forum discussing different products. Im still using WD-40 on a micro-fiber towel. Does the trick...
Thanks guys, I actually tried WD-40 and it didn't seem to work, I will get some nu-finish and try the wd40 again.
Wd40 is a great cleaner I use it all the time as a cleaner - the strangest use I have found is the SS apliances esp the range hood. Takes off the grease and fingerprints instantly
Ed, Try some GooGone. Available at Freddies in a spray Gel. As with all this stuff "test in a small area first". But I have found this stuff dissolves most any gluey substance - old tape residue - melted candy (halloween) on the Audi, etc. I just bought some - if you want to try it stop by (PM me) and I will share & save you the $3 to test it.
Methyl Hydrate.
Works great, harmless on the finish, and inexpensive. You can pour the remainder in your tank in the winter months to absorb moisture!
Cheers
wd-40 works well, stoner xenit is the ultimate anti-adhesive but is STRONG, optimum Power Clean is good for taking off those things.
