I DO like 3M. Got a little interest there (DRIP Fund), and they've held their own against the market for 24 years that I've watched...

But about the rag there - 'just sayin'...'

Well, I never tried a paint brush to remove tar/oil. But the 3M Adhesive Remover is great stuff that works almost instantly on specks of tar, etc, and requires very little rubbing on larger streaks. Paint friendly too!
