  • If you can find such thing as a "chandlers" (maybe at a marina or seaside) they often sell a tar remover product - try on a hiddne area in the bag first though

    What a brilliant idea I don't live too far from the deaside (about half an hour) might be worth a trip on Sunday if the weather is nice or in the half term when the boys are off Thanks for that, I never thought of it before :A
