    Tar sucks

    The stupid things you do when you are young. Back when I first got my car, I decided to line the trunk with the sound proofing mats. Well over time the tar inside the mats started to melt and the tar snuck through the mats and into the trunk carpet creating one hell of a mess. I just spent 6 hours pulling the tar out of my trunk. What a fucking pain in the ass.

    Materials used:

    3 rolls of paper towels (1 industrustrial roll)
    Heatgun
    Razor blades
    scrapper
    6 cans of bug and tar remove
    Gasoline
    Degreaser
    Dish washing soap

    The trunk still needs some spots removed but it's 95% done. After this I'm going to need new trunk carpet. Car will be a few pounds lighter though.
