Scarborough Beach - contamination 10 Mar 13

[findyaown]

Was out early digging Filey beach today. saw a clean up crew checking the beach, But it looks like most of it has washed back out to sea, or been covered in sand,

i only came across three blobs today stu ,looks like its all gone ,that bloke looked a bit surprised that i spoke to, he was after some pics of it ,think he was a reporter,when he asked me if i had seen any,
i said,yes three blobs and he looked disappointed,

Tar can be removed using iether butter/margerine (yes!), alcohol (methylated spirit) or white spirit - but as usual try this remedy at your own risk and dont blame me if it causes a problem.

Normal precautions with solvents..

Others suggest WD40?
