How do you remove tar sealant from vinyl siding?

To remove tar sealant from vinyl siding, start by scraping off as much of the tar as possible using a plastic putty knife to avoid damaging the siding. Next, apply a solvent like mineral spirits or rubbing alcohol to a clean cloth and gently rub the affected area to dissolve the remaining tar. Rinse the area thoroughly with water afterward to remove any residue. Always test the solvent on an inconspicuous spot first to ensure it doesn't damage the vinyl.
