    when I was a kid my mom used vinegar or alcohol... I can't remember
    which... to take the tar off us when we got dirty in it.

| 2729.2 | It takes make-up off (isn't that like tar?) | MSBIS1::SADLER |  | Thu Aug 03 1989 17:11 | 3 | 
|  |     Try cold cream (i.e. face cream).  If it doesn't take it out,
    it will at least soften their pads a bit.  I wouldn't use anything
    harsh on them.  It will eventually come off by itself.

|  |     Use anything that is oil based that's edible (cooking oil or mineral
    oil).  You want to try black tar on a black cat with black pads....oh
    did we have fun.  I even cut some of it off on the fur between the
    toes.  The mineral oil worked real well for us when our cat walked on
    a foundation that had just been tarred.

|  |     re: .4  My goodness!  Is there no end of uses for Avon SSS!
     I recently found out that it makes a good insect repellant too!!
    
      Amazing stuff!  Wonder if it gets stains out of my husband's
    shirts too ;-)

    It probably does.  I heard that it works wonders on blood stains!
