Can I use tar remover on a ceramic coating?
Quick answer: Yes - a dedicated tar remover that’s safe for coatings is fine and won’t strip a properly cured ceramic. Apply to a cool, clean panel, allow a short dwell, wipe away and rinse. It may mute beading slightly - top up with a ceramic-safe maintenance spray. Avoid petrol, harsh TFRs and heavy scrubbing.
You most certain can use a tar remover on a ceramic coating.
Tar removers are mild solvents designed to dissolve the tar without damaging your paintwork. If they are safe to use on normal paintwork, they are definitely safe to use on a ceramic coating, which is even more resistant to solvents and other chemical treatments.
