Kerosene, if that doesn't work fully: clean that area with water & B-cut/Cut&Polish that sumboi.

I'm going to look for tar marks and remove if there are any on the coming holidays, I used to use WD40 (got big ass pick-up/rally mud flaps installed which stopped me from cleaning glaringly visible tar marks every week!) but I've run out rn, have to buy a can before washing the car or will have to use Kerosene

If there are any tar marks those would be quite old, I haven't done a tar removal for about 2 years, figured it's time to look for any spots and get rid of them

With damage to paint work unless it is the liquid

I use LIQUI MOLY tar remover, purchased from an online store (Sri Lankan store), it works great. You need to spray little bit on to the tar spots and wait, after few minutes, tar dissolves and you can easily wipe it

Have been using them for decades, I kinda dissolve it, take it on a sponge, just around the inside of wheel arches and the lower sill, nothing has happened to date. Pretty much I do it weekly, the oldest car I have is from 2010, and have been doing it since new. Nothing

Probably will take the wax off but nothing else to see

I use ArmourAll Bug and Tar Remover. Works pretty well. Not sure if it's available in Sri Lanka.
