Alright guys. Where can I find a 3M decal removing wheel...the rubber ones that are tan in color for removing decals? I peeled some of the graphics off the hood of my SX and the adhesive stayed on. It wont come off with adhesive remover and i dont feel like rubbing it all off with my finger lol.
 
haha I wish I knew there was such a thing. I removed all of the decals off of my XTC with my fingers... and have the blisters to prove it.
 
Heat gun or GooGone make life easier on the fingie!
 
This is some insane adhesive though, I tried goo gone with no results. Should I use the goo gone AND the heat gun you think?
 
I don't know about that, googone is probably flammable, should have used the heat gun as you peeled, then it usually leaves little or no residue. The goo gone will work, just keep soking/rubbing it in, it will eventually soften up and roll off. Some of that glue is phenominal. I actually just took some of my hood tonite from an old trail permit, and it was tough, but the goo gone eventually worked, took several applications tho.

Just use WD-40. You'll be surprised how effective that stuff is. It's what I use to remove the stickyness that stays behind. I've done allot, believe me.

that or warm the area with hair dryer or heat gun then use goo gone
 
cool thanks guys! I will be trying all of your suggestions soon and I will report back on what works best!
 
yes go to auto parts store.i use the wheels all the time takes sticker and glue off easy.if you have a big decal you can try the hair dryer or heat gun 1st and you might get a big piece to peel off.
 
Goo gone and a hairdryer worked good for me.

Had to fight to use the hairdryer from the wife.LOL!
She is a little over bearing when it comes to her hair products!
Maybe b/c her hair is down to her calfs.LOL!

just dont use goo gone on a plastic windshield, it ate the finish on mine trying to remove a michigan trail permit sticker, the wd40 works the best for me with a hairdryer. I have seen those wheels used at a bodyshop to remove a pinstrip from a car, pretty slick.
 
I used the goo gone on my windy and it didn't do anything, but take my old permit off
 
goo-gone in a metal can dulled the crap out of my stock 02 srx windshield, so I left next years trail permit in the same spot....lol, good luck with it, didnt work for me.
 
I really thought they were joking about those wheels!!!!
