CARPRO TarX 1 Liter (34 oz)

CARPRO TarX is a tar and adhesive remover built on a natural citrus solvent, and this 1 Liter (34 oz) bottle is the working size for detailers who decontaminate whole vehicles rather than single spots. Tar spatter along rocker panels, tree sap baked onto a hood, leftover sticker gunk — TarX dissolves them without the harsh chemical stink of old-school solvents.

The Tar & Adhesive Remover That Runs on Citrus

Most tar removers force a trade: dissolving power that also threatens your ceramic coating or sealant. TarX's citrus-based solvent takes the sticky stuff off — tar, adhesive residue, tree sap, bug remains — while staying safe on clear coat, coatings, and sealants. It earns its place in the decontamination stage right alongside iron removal, clearing organic contamination before you ever touch a polisher. Like the rest of the lineup, it's made in South Korea to CarPro's spec.

How to Use It

• Start on a washed surface so you can actually see the tar and sap you're targeting.
• Apply TarX to the contaminated area and let the citrus solvent dwell per the label before wiping.
• Lift the dissolved residue with a microfiber towel, then rinse or re-wash the panel to clear any solvent traces.

1 Liter or 500ml?

The liter is the right call if you detail regularly, drive a truck that collects road tar, or handle customer cars — full-body decon burns through product faster than you'd think. For occasional spot duty on a single garage-kept car, the TarX 500ml covers you at a lower buy-in.

Is TarX safe on ceramic coatings?

Yes. Unlike aggressive petroleum solvents, TarX is designed not to harm ceramic coatings or sealants, which makes it usable on protected daily drivers — not just prep-stage paint.

What's the difference between TarX and IronX?

They handle different halves of the contamination picture. TarX dissolves organic, sticky contamination — tar, sap, adhesive — while IronX chemically removes embedded iron and brake dust. A full decontamination before polishing typically uses both.

Does TarX work on glass and wheels?

It does — paint, glass, and wheel surfaces are all fair game, so sticker residue on a windshield gets the same treatment as tar on a rocker panel.
