hey guys sorry to make another thread,

i took badges off all fine, did one back side bumper strip all fine, went to do the other side an the glue was all hard, an it took some paint off, now im not to fussed bout the paint can get it bodged later on, but the glue which is still on there is there a solution which breaks it down an doesnt damage the lacquer?

Thanks in advanced!

I did mine 2 days ago, its a ******* to get off... I spent around 2 hours altogether getting the sticky off.. i used about 5 old plastic cards and some white spirit on a rag.. you've just gotta keep putting it over the sticky and scraping.. Its hard work but it works. It wont come off dry, you have to keep putting white spirit on... Also another method i found works is spraying furniture polish on it and leaving for about 10 minutes.. it gets most off but once it gets farely thin you have to use the white spirit.

Bug & tar remover does **** all.
