ZR1 S10 · 09-25-2004, 10:17 PM

Thanks in advance!

Goo Gone Or I Heard Of People Using Wd40 But Goo Gone Would Be My First Choice.

I use WD-40 to remove all the residue from stuff I peel off... Cheaper and theres always a can laying around the house..

goo gone took it off like pow

im kinda partial to whirlpool range cleaner, that shit would eat chrome if you let it sit long enough lol, i dunno my roomate works at whirlpool so we can always get it. works for me.

Wd-40 is faster

lakeratokc · 10-21-2004, 02:59 AM

actually a remove wheel (rubber wheel ) on a pneumatic drill is what i use at work is the fastest but you probably wont wanna spend 25 bucks on the wheel

xtreme3411 · 10-21-2004, 04:06 PM

use a pressure washer and blast it off!!

lakeratokc · 10-21-2004, 09:09 PM

wont work

Prime Xtreme · 10-22-2004, 10:41 AM

goo gone is what i used

Dallas@2020Kustoms · 11-04-2004, 11:32 PM

I used goo gone, and I think it's your best alternative because its not harsh and abrasive like some other methods people have mentioned. I believe goo gone is possibley citris based, but someone can feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Save your paint and get goo gone!

-DANTHEMAN- · 11-10-2004, 01:04 AM

i used laquer thinner and a plastic razor blade

Sounds like I'm going to be looking for Goo Gone when I peel my emblems off. And if I tried using Whirlpool range cleaner, it sounds like I'd finally get to repaint my truck.

I might even f-u-c-k up using the Goo Gone.

LIGHTER FLUID!!! serisouly it wont hurt the paint or anything like that. Trust me

lakeratokc · 11-14-2004, 03:39 PM

rubbing alcohol ur best bet if you dont wanna use ur thumb

BobOnAir · 11-25-2004, 04:51 PM

RUBBER WHEEL.. it also takes of graphics, stickers, and two way tape.

difrent · 11-26-2004, 01:31 PM
