I have always had good results with Turtle Wax, Bug and Tar Remover. Keep it wet and let it soak in.

I've used varsol with a lot of success. I'd imagine wd40 would work as well. They're both solvents.

That's what I've used for years as well. Always had good luck with it.
In the old days we used gasoline.

Original Bike Spirits Spray Cleaner & Polish. Use it on my bike and also works great for removing tar and other road grime. I swear by it.
