removing sticker residue from oem skirts - 6G Celicas Forums
>
I used some bumper sticker remover that I bought from AutoZone I believe.
What I did was scrape away as much as I could first, then spray the area well and wait 3 -4 minutes to let it soak in. Then I scraped off a little more. It takes a while but if you keep repeating this eventually you can get it all off.

goood deal ill try it later....
goo gone works, you gotta rub it in with your fingers not a towel. chanh thought me this and it works really well
fingers huh?..ill try it....
haha.. that took me a while to remove to...
.
i used a torch and bumper sticker remover spray in tandem.. then after it became more pliable, i scraped and sanded it off.

a towel just absorbs the goo gone and wont work, use fingers
teh oem skirts have 2 clear film on the backside.....
the finger/goo gone trick works but only for the top portion....the bottom portion of the residue i jus use 60 grit sandpaper..and its REALLY messy.....

try some epoxy or rubber cement. rubber cement worked for me, but don't leave it on too long otherwise it'll just make the situation worse... g.l.

heat up the stuff maybe with a heat gun and its easier to rub off with your fingers.

Call me a traitor! See if I care. ;)
Lol. If you peel off the clear stickers in a certain way it will get most of the residue off. You have to peel it off steadily and dont stop because if you stop pulling for a second it will leave a line of residue where you stopped. I don't know if that makes sense but anyway...
Mac tools sells a rubber/plastic attachment for a drill chuck. Its a wheel that you can spin right on paint and will remove glue, stickers, adhesive, etc. Just be carefull not to spend too much time in one spot or spin it up too fast. Itll take the paint right off! Especially on plastic. I believe you can get this for $15-$20.
Interesting, would an auto store have this you think?
