Wipe off the excess, apply bug and tar remover, wipe off, wash vehicle as usual.

Was the OP talking a painted surface?? Oups, I thought he was talking about the carpet or the seats...! No DO NOT use break fluid cleaner on painted surface. I does miracle on interiors, but not on painted surface... It will make you cry!
