I use WD-40. You have to let it soak for 10 minutes and then wipe it off with a rag. Make sure to wash your car right after.

Or you can buy bug and tar remover from the auto parts store. Remember to wash the vehicle (or the affected area), like Jaspher said, and reapply wax.

No it won't harm the paint if you wash it off. You should also reapply whatever wax was removed in the process. These things strip wax very well.

Make sure you completely wipe off the WD-40 before washing the car .
