I tried scratching it of that just scratched paint .Tried some Turps that dint do shit Tried brake fluid nothing Any ideas ON what i could use to get it of? i tried sand paper too that dint seem to do nothing :| cheers

[markbound]

I used petrol on mine and it did the trick :?

[Riggy]

:o :o STOP RIGHT NOW

do not put brake fluid on your paint as it will fuck it up big time ,worse then sanding and scrathing it

heat it untill the rubber goes a little soft and peel it off

[epo]

use boiling water on mine

or try auto glym bug and tar remover

1) Try and use the correct forums

2) Never ever put Brake Fluid on your paint work

3) Products have been invented to do a specific job. Autoglym tar remover is great stuff, buy some of that.

Your lack of patience will probably cost you a respray once the brake fluid and other chemicals start to work their way through the paintwork :roll:

i heated them up and they came off easy

[raza]

Nope Washed of all the other shit after use . Found the best way so far is using a lighter and picking at it=\ . And what is the rite forum ? To post somthing like this ?

[raza]

Going to try again tommorrow with a Hair Dryer:) See if that works better

[Mike.]

i think it would be the styling forum mate

[burgo]

there is a special rubber wheel which goes into a drill for this exact job, go and ask at any bodyshop

[raza]

Yea i have one but sadly no drill :$ i seriously need to go and get some tools =(

[Kruger]

Dont use the rubber wheel as these are about ?15, Get a tin of degreaser/panel wipe about ?5 from a paint supplier, slap it on and the adhesive will melt, with no damage to your paintwork.

[epo]

try auto glym i always use it
its the best stuff around imo

oh and next time wait for a warm day or get heaters blaring out in you garage

[raza]

Was in scunthorpe the other day at the Scrap yard. Where do u get auto glym From? If the haird dryer dont work am getting some :)

[raza]

[epo]

[Snowface]
