I pulled all my stickers off because im going for an all black set up and it left behind a lot of glue. ive tried goo-gone and some window tint glue removal stuff. neither works. my fingers are soar from using sand paper too lol. any ideas? thanks.

would a heat gun do the trick, if used very carefully?

+1 You can also use laquer thinner sparingly on hard to handle spots.

Gently use a heat gun and GooGone...its very safe on all plastics. Use towel and let the stuff sit for a few seconds before rubbing it. Wash and wax after you should be all set.

NOTEoNOT use the goof-off stuff in a small metal can its too harsh messed up a oem winshield of mine.

Once the game is over, put the pieces back in the box and put the box back in the closet. Be sure to get all the little men and the weapons (Candlestick Holder, etc.)

Recycle the beer cans/bottles, throw away the empty pizza boxes, and wipe the table with a clean cloth.

Voila...Clue is removed...!

(GooBeGone didn't work??? hmmm)

Best tool I ever bought!!!! Dynazip Eraser Decal Removal Air Tool - DNA18258

It is scary to use at first, but it works great, no damage to the paint, and fast!!

You can remove all glue and stickers on a fairing in 10 minutes.

GooGone has always worked great for me for anything like that.

If its still made, Whip Strip. Removes wax, pine pitch, tar, bugs, glue and even over spray from paint. Just rewax and good as new.

A guy was spraying a roof next door and got silver paint on by old bike. Took it all off and you would have never known it was there.
