miko_supra Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I have some really hard glue remains on my rear bumper where the number plate surrounds used to be. Not too sure how to go about tackling it and whether its going to be a respray job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-Plethora Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I would use a bit of white spirit or meths to shift that, make sure its washed very well after though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miko_supra Posted March 18, 2010 Author Share Posted March 18, 2010 Warm it up with a hairdryer/heat gun and use plenty of methylated spirit on a rag. I'm not convinced that heat will do much to this stuff. But I'll give it a go tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miko_supra Posted March 18, 2010 Author Share Posted March 18, 2010 It will, I know from experience. Alright, is the meths definatly worth it, or just the heating? Reason I ask is I don't have any but I can get some if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
