I am looking for a way for removing asphalt from the paint. Any ideas? I have used plain gasoline in the past but not sure if its safe. Any ideas?

Several manufacturers make "bug and tar remover" that works pretty well. You might also try Goof Off

Bug n Tar or Goo Gone from Walmart. I used Bug N Tar on my TL when drops of paint from the elevated train station in NY fell on the roof of my car.

Not a fan of Bug n Tar remover. The brand I've used (Turtle Wax) has an abrasive in it & can scratch the clear coat. I use straight kerosene, WD 40 also works well. Don't rub too hard, let the solvent do the work.

Anything involving rubbing the shit out of it is gonna scratch the paint to hell. Small amount of lacquer thinner or alcohol on a rag, wipe it off easily, then hit it with soap/water or detailer after. I've always done this with my cars and it takes no time compared to the bug/tar off junk and comes out better.

I have used Mineral Turpentine in a spray bottle for over 20 years. Discovered how well it works by accident. Method, wash the vehicle first so all dirt and road grim have been removed . With the car still wet, spray the turps on to the asphalt spots one panel at a time. Wait a few minutes and you will see the black spots start to run as the turps dissolved the asphalt. Rub lightly with a damp porous cloth, I use a Chux dish washing super wipe. You may need to spray on a bit more mineral turps at this point. Hose off completely . Work your way around the car. Don't let the turps dry on the paint work . when finished, dry the vehicle as you normally would after a wash. Your car will be spot free with no scratch marks and it doesn't remove the shine if it was there before.
