Tar is modified resin produced primarily from the wood and roots of pine by destructive distillation under pyrolysis. It is a viscous black liquid. Production and trade in tar was a major contributor in the economies of Northern Europe and Colonial America. Its main use was in preserving and protecting wooden vessels against rot. The largest user was the Royal Navy. Demand for tar declined with the advent of iron and steel ships. Tar-like products can also be produced from other forms of organic matter such as peat. Mineral products resembling tar can be produced from fossil hydrocarbons including petroleum. Coal tar tar is produced from coal as a byproduct of coke production. From Wikipedia under the

Any hydrocarbon will work - gasoline, lighter fluid, etc. But you might want to test a little spot first. Hydrocarbons can dissolve some types of plastics and rubber products. Wet a paper towel with the fluid and keep dabbing it onto your flipflops. Answered by STEVE C - Wed Jun 27 09:47:48 2007 How do you remove tar from carpet? Q.

There's a simple solution for cleaning carpet stains caused by tar, and it only takes minutes. Spray WD-40, the lubricant with thousands of uses, directly onto the tar. Leave it for about ten or fifteen minutes and wipe off with a clean cloth. You may have to repeat this a couple of times, but soon your carpet will look the same as it did before the tar was tracked in.

A cutback or emulsion asphalt is what you want, probably an emulsion as it does not need to be heated to apply. Putting in on flattened and rolled, with a steel wheel roller will make a surface very much like an asphalt driveway at a fraction of the cost.
