How to Remove Adhesive from Paint Surface?

First, the car owner needs to prepare a bottle of tar and resin remover, which can be purchased at a regular hardware store. Because the resin remover can easily wipe off the tar on the car body without damaging the paint. Next, simply spray the resin remover onto the tar stains on the car body surface. Use a clean cloth to wipe the car body surface, and the tar stains will be easily removed, leaving the car body clean and free of tar.
Last time I had adhesive residue left from tape on my car and wanted to handle it myself. The most practical method is to first use a hot air blower to soften the glue, keeping it at a moderate distance to avoid damaging the paint. Once softened, gently scrape it off with a plastic scraper or even rub it off with your fingers. For stubborn parts, apply a few drops of alcohol or a dedicated adhesive remover, wait a few minutes for it to dissolve, then wipe clean with a slightly damp cloth. Wear gloves during the process to avoid skin contact with chemicals, and afterward, wash the car paint with soapy water to prevent residue. If the results aren't satisfactory, repeat the process a few times—don't rush to avoid scratching. To prevent this next time, use low-adhesive stickers or clean them off promptly. Safety first; maintaining the car paint is more important than removal. When in doubt, consult a friend.
