Kingcarr Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Hi Folks!probably been posted millions upon millions of times before, but i obviously missed them all!yesterday i finally got round to removing the adhesive from the bump strips on the side of my sportif! The outcome looks a lot better for obvious reasons but the pain i went through...My list of tools;NO HAIRDRYER! (alot of people suggested it)...1 x Plastic Ruler (for scraping the adhesive)1 x Bottle of Auto Glym - Intensive Tar Remover1 x Bottle of Isopropyl Cleaning fluid (to lift any specs of adhesive that remained)1 x Old dish clothTime Taken;4...yes... FOUR FRIGGIN HOURS!I went through 8 smokes and 6 cups of tea! The worst thing was, it was chucking it down!im happy with the result though will get some pics up later...feel free to tell me what i done wrong, and how much easier it would have been if...Kind regards,Nathan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Asad Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Mate........did mine in 10min flat and put a coat of wax on perfect job never used it again but its there if i every need it just make sure you have the original paintwork (paintshops use a lower temp to set the paint due to plastic trims etc) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
