Tar Removal from Carpet

If tar has somehow found it's way onto your carpet, don't panic. There's a simple solution for cleaning carpet stains caused by tar, and it only takes minutes. Spray WD-40, the lubricant with thousands of uses, directly onto the tar. Leave it for about ten or fifteen minutes and wipe off with a clean cloth. You may have to repeat this a couple of times, but soon your carpet will look the same as it did before the tar was tracked in.

Will this WD-40 also work on upholstery that has tar on it?

I paid $150 to have my car cleaned, vacuumed & carpet stains (tar) by a professional car detailing shop. They said they couldn't get the tar stains off my car mats. I came home and used the WD-40 and it took it right off the car mats!
