acetone and then rebuff is what ive used often you will need to re wax oafter the acetone

ih8hyts · 01-11-2006, 12:33 PM

oh thanx do you think alchohol would work well?-

BIG MIKE @ GAUGE · 01-11-2006, 04:10 PM

yea its not as strong at breaking down the glue but if you drink enough of it your fingers wont hurt from scrubbing at it....

no but seriously if you can find some acetone or even wax and bug remover it would be alittle better than the alcohol

Goo Gone works pretty well too.

3M Wax and Adhesive Remover will do the job too.

Yeah, goo Gone is great stuff,buy a little bottle, it goes a LONG way. Squirt it on the adhesive and let it sit for a little bit (a couple minutes or so) and then use a rubber scraper to get it off (it won't harm the finish) or you could put some on a rag and rub it off , it will smear a little but all of it will eventually come off.

apparantly wd40 works. but never tried it

dillon_b12 · 01-11-2006, 04:29 PM

It works...

wd40 works and bug remover works good to but remember to wash it after you get done to get all the chemicals off the paint

thanks alot it really helped...

i think that 3M sells a glue and compound removing wheel attachment for a drill and you dont have to buff after your done because it does not harm the paint.
