how do you get tar out of a beach towel?

Answer 1

Tell him to go back to his ship.

Answer 2

This requires 2 steps:
Remove the tar:

1. Place some ice cubes in a small plastic bag and apply the bag to the tar, if a great deal of tar is stuck to the fabric.

2. Allow the tar to freeze and harden.

3. Peel away the tar after it has completely hardened.

Removing the stain:
1. Apply stain remover to the stain if the fabric is machine-washable.

2. Wash according to the fabric's care instructions.

3. Allow the fabric to air dry.

4. Dab a small amount of white kerosene onto a persistent stain with a white paper towel.

5. Wash separately from other clothes and according to the fabric's care instructions.

OR:

Spray WD-40 on the tar. It also works on tar stuck on your car.

If you can get hold of Ambersil Amberclens foaming cleaner, a British company based in Basingstoke then it's a cinch.

Spray the effected area liberally, leave it for a couple of minutes. Use some hot, soapy water and a scrubbing brush and scrub it away. In no time the tar gone. Keep applying foam while you scrub if needs be.
Hope this helps!
