Looks like he tried several methods.

Turpentine is perfect for that job.  Also takes off road tar.  Doesn't damage the paint.

Having owned 3 auto body shops my 2 cents is rubbing alcohol. Very inexpensive, works without alot of rubbing and with the catalyzed clear coat we all have on Beavers it will not harm the paint. Get at any grocery store.
