I think I bit off more than I can chew

[Woodsrider]

I decided today to blow the stickers off the sides of the '89 toyota. I know, I know, it will never match because of the faded paint. But they were cracking and peeling anyway.
So my question to all of you is this: What is the fastest way to get the sticker goo off of the paint so I can get busy with the buffer?

rub lightly with a solvent. I use diesel or kero. Gojo may work too.

Might try lighter fluid with a soft cloth. :confused:

honda contact cleaner!!! takes sticker residue off and wont harm painted surfaces it takes it off fast too

googone...that stuffs great...and if you ever get gum in your hair it helps too...:p

WD-40....

Starting fluid works for removing some things.

octaine 97 gas does the trick

I work at a detailer shop and we just use plastic razor blades and a heat gun, than if that doesn't work we use paint thinner really lightly. It isnt that hard just keep trying she'll come off.

I did the same thing a few years ago on mine and you are going to rub your fingernail's off and I used Gas to get the left over glue off. It will take a while but I think it is worth it!


:D

CONTACT CLEANER!!!!!!

I would also recomened googone, it is works great for that kind of stuff!

[Woodsrider]

Thanks for all the replies. I'm getting it. I resorted to an old standby. MEK, and a plastic scraper. I got one side almost finished and ran out of MEK. So I'll get some more at lunch tomorrow, and finish it. Then I just have to cut the paint and buff it out.
