I kinda wanted to hear that one too

goo gone works for a lot of things

Try some clean 10w-40 motor oil on a rag.
Tires are made from petroleum, thus another petrol-based product is likely to help with dilution, maybe even wd-40 but I would try 10w-40 first.

 

[FuzzyOne]

Whatever you use, test a spot first. I'm a WD-40 fan for such marks.

Exactly.... Haven't found too much they won't clean

 

[True Cut Lawn Maintenance]

Acetone, or mineral spirits

 

[Love2Cut]

Watch those solvents, you could bleach out the color and it will look faded and chalky.

Bring up an old thread...I have some employees that do this from time to time (mark up siding) any tips on what will remove the marks and not fade the siding?

 

[MarcSmith]

fluid film...goof off...

 

[mnglocker]

Just mark the rest of the siding with your tires so it will blend in.

An SOS pad always worked for me!

 

[Ric3077]

SOS = Good idea!

 

[STCL01]

I vote for the Mr. Clean eraser, but a soft brush and a little toothpaste will work just fine. No solvents, and WD-40 will cause the spot to collect dirt later, as will anything else oily.

 

[MIZZTERJON]

go to a sideing and roofing supply house, get a bottle of spray 9. its made for cleaning vinyl sideing

 

[Kutz Lawns]

I had a new customer with a new house swear that I put some black wheel marks on a vinyl fence and I know I didn't do it, it was already there!

But I cleaned them off anyway with an SOS pad, it's got the stong soap & the light steel wool and came off in a breeze.

And since I've been doing the lawn, no wheel marks from me!

 

[G&G Maintenace]

i've used simple green un diluted and a soft scrub pad, came right off.
