Question Burnout rubber question?

I know what you guys do to prevent the build up, but I found out a day late and a dollar short. After Cecil I need to know how to get it off the truck now. Somehow I got a build up on the right side so bad it looks like the truck was painted black in areas. Any help would be great. Thanks.

i never tried it but i heard wd40
works great, i believe you spray the area
let it sit for a few and then hose it off.

save it all and make a rubber ball out of it.

Mine is bigger than a gold ball, smaller than a baseball

What do you do to prevent the build up? Ive heard of a product that you can spray on before you go to the drags and then just hose off when you get home. Anyone know where you can get the stuff or what it is?

Wd40 works for me. Spray on and wipe off.

I usually you a vinyl tape (NOT DUCT TAPE, the adhesive will stick to the paint ) the same color as the L for in the fenderwells, so I just peel it off when I am done. Taking the rubber w/ it.

i use "burnout guard" at the track..
i think it's just soapy water in a spray bottle.. i plan to find out when i run out..

too bad i didn't use anything before this..
i scraped out enough rubber to form a softball afterwords..
(i forgot to take a pic of the softball sized ball of rubber)

right click & select "save target as":
