Mar 13, 2013 - I spent two weekends scraping off the stripe kit from my Ram pickup..ran from bottom of grille across the hood and up over the roof. Been on for over seven years..believe me it wasn't easy but heat gun-goo gone- fingernails did the trick.
Aug 24, 2012 - I would not recommend doing this ... but carb cleaner removes adhesive very well... like on appliances such as washers and dryers and painted surfaces similar to those..
Aug 7, 2012 - I've used this & many other chemicals. Rapid Remover is the best. Even better than 3M. I don't think it will hurt any surface. I've used it on laminate, paint, powder coat, stone, etc. Not just for auto decals. Pretty much any decal you peel off will leave behind residue. Other products loosen the glue. This neutralizes it. I removed large decals from a laminated cabinet. Sprayed this on, waited 90 seconds & scraped off in 1 pass with a plastic putty knife. Other stuff just made mess!
Jul 20, 2012 - Great video. I have car magnets that I will need to apply to my car with an adhesive being that I just realized that my car doors are polymer and not steel like the hood, roof, and trunk of my car. What adhesive do you recommend is safe for my car doors to apply the car door magnets I have?
Jun 16, 2012 - i have been detailing for 20 years, have you ever tried to remove stickers that have been on a car for years in the sun. they wont peel off in one strip. they break. the rubber wheel is the only way to remove stickers that have been on there for years
Jun 5, 2012 - there was a very large camaro decal that needed removing which was was on a 2000 white camaro for 12 YEARS on the bottom of both the driver and passenger doors, a hair dryer, a microfiber towel, a tiny bit of goo-gone, and some tender love and care gets it done perfect
Dec 12, 2011 - I have a trailer with 8 year old decals. Ill let you try it on there. If it works you have yourself a selling video and I have a clean trailer.
Nov 26, 2011 - You use turpentine and your paint will come off too, same with lacquer thinner or acetone. If you use gasoline it will dry the body of the paint over time. You can use kerosene, mineral spirits, naptha or lighter fluid (which is mostly naptha mixed with benzine to make it flash easier) as they are oily based solvents. Goo Gone is a little rough on paint especially on the clear coat.
Jul 28, 2009 - Karnage 542, who would screw up the paint on a 08 Hummer for this ???thousands of monthly customers will back it up, ask at signs101 or letterville.
Grip time man!
Jul 23, 2009 - We have no formal test results on carbon fiber, though its safe for use with fiberglass, polycarbonate (when following time restraints) so a test on inconspicous area would answer your question.
I'm sure it would be safe to use.
