flippin gb sticker
Moderator: martauto
The guy who owned my car before saw fit to put a plastic GB sticker on the boot. The total gimp must have used double sided sticky tape.
I've tried everything to get it off. T cut, Farecla, auto glym paint restorer and even eventually WD40.
Has anyone got any suggestions?

Heat gun is the usual tool.

There's also stuff available in aerosol cans to deal with the residue. Smells like orange juice.

Use one of these, usualy does the trick for me.



I hate paintwork at the best of times. I'm much more of a spanner and hammer monkey so i'm gonna resist the power tools for the time being i think.DanThe wrote:Yeah, and most of the paint around it...pac1982 wrote:a mop and some mild cutting compound will have it off in seconds

we are not talking about removing a sticker we are talking about removing a sticky residue from the paint work, similer to what your mother has to keep doing with the socks she finds under your bedDanThe wrote:Only a fuctard uses a mop to take off stickers, has to be the worst advice ive read on here in a long time, apart from that plank that keeps spouting on about how good kio's are,,,,pac1982 wrote:hence why i said mild compound you monkey besides only a fuctard damages paint work using a mop even with an aggresive compoundDanThe wrote: Yeah, and most of the paint around it...
