Pin Strip Removal - middle of detail HELP!!

[Mach30SiR]

Just as the title says, i have taken the pin striping off my girlfriends car but it left the adhesive. What do you use to remove? Clay didn't work - bug and tar didn't work - will it come off when i start polishing with the PC (Yellow + OHC)



Next thoughts are gas or goo gone or IPA.

you can try emblem remover. sold at autozone. heat usually removes them. hot day outside and just peel it off.

i already removed them with my finger nail......i know i know and it left the adhesive i;ll have to look into this emblem remover stuff.

Goo Gone worked for me.

Thanks, going to pick some up now...... they came off of a 98 toyota so the adhesive is HARD.

Yup like they said adhesive remover or body solvent should take it off, might need to let it "sit" alittle to break it down if it's hard, and of course you'll have to rewax.

I just did this on one of my cars last weekend. I used Stoner's Tarminator, and the adhesive came off pretty well with some elbow grease. The longer it sat, the easier it was to remove it, too.

If you need an immediate "go-to" use Gasoline. It won't hurt paint.

Do you have WD40 in the US? That would be good for it.

 

[cute02spec]

Yes, we have WD40.

Thanks for all the reply!! Got my hands on some 3m Adhesive remover, and it worked with *alot* of elbow grease. i should have thought about wd-40 - duh.

WD40 eh? I might have to give that a shot. I've got the same problem, plus some leftover adhesive from a car emblem. I tried claying like Mach but got the same results. Thanks.
