I know this is random but I wanted to share. Went on a road trip and noticed when I got home that my E had gum stuck on the side of it. Evidently my nephew (8 years old) had opened the back window and let his gum fly!! Anyways I was freaking out!! My mom used to sell Avon and told me to use their Skin So Soft to get the gum off. She told me that it would not hurt the paint. It worked great....let's just say I was very surprised but glad!!!

Alternative method...

Find nephew, gently massage peanut butter into his scalp, gently massage gum on your E with nephew's head.:D

Good tip though. I thought that SSS was only good for 'skeeters. Does it work for tar?

Not sure about tar....be worth a try, though.

A nice little trick I learned when I was DM in the keys -- SSS works great for keeping away those pesky No see 'ems
