Default this stuff is GREAT for taking off tar

had big chunks of tar on my car after a drive over some really fresh asphalt/pavement. sprayed this stuff on, and dissolved the tar within a few seconds. had to wax afterwards though of course....

just curious if there's much of a difference between them

Default mainly GROW 1705 and toluene, GROW is more mild and works well for most things

toluene is nasty stuff but works quickly and I can use it as octane booster
I really hate having a bunck of different products for specialized jobs. I like a couple products that can be used for many things.

Default I have used TARMINATOR from Stoner, works fine!

I'd say if you use it on a windshield to take off Kosomoline etc. put it on a rag first, don't spray directly onto glass. The stuff should be safe for paint, but you can't be too careful.
