cheers nam
AutoGlym glue/tar remover. You can get it from Halfords etc.Great stuff :+:
this was a pain in the backside when i tried to remove mine lol
spent ages trying to heat/rub it off..but i found that cellulose thinner was best. It wiped the gunk off like there was nothing there, but if its been recently sprayed, or used a spray can to patch up, i wouldnt use it cause it strips the paint lol

Quite a few people have used this but a lot have said that it will strip your paint if left long enough.
i used thinners thats because i didnt know or think about the autoglym stuff
it didnt do mine ne harm but i wud recomend usin the propper autoglym stuff
i highly rate all autoglym products
Im using a blow torch to remove the sticky foam rubbish, then again the car is being sprayed and i did set fire to a barn lol

no wonder it caught fire bet its easier tho

it doesnt need to be left? just dab a cloth in it so theres a lil bit on it and then rub it over the sticky stuff. it only stripped a lil bit my paint cause i sprayed (with a spray can) the door like a week before, and i had too much on the cloth. i would definately recommend it tho. Plus, heat works too, if you can be arsed doing that.

I used petrol, soaked a cloth in it then rubbed it over the sticky crap, let it soak in then start peeling with ur fingers!
Got a nice blister on my thumb from doing it tho!
