unless you got a Electric Buffer i wouldnt bother, its a nightmare, it took me about 3 weeks in total because i kept getting fed up of doing it lol still bot done properly!!!!

Heat gun would also help i suppose

same here

a buffing wheel is by far the quickest way of getting them off

If you can get the car within reach of a hair dryer and some petrol that'll prob be the easiest way!

The hairdryer won't get as hot as a heat gun so you don't risk taking off the paint, and the petrol isn't as harmful to the paint as thinners. And I'd say if you've got a flex long enough to get the hairdryer to the car then you should get the drill out with a buffing wheel.

So the strips are just held on with glue?

Cool. Mine are coming off this weekend then.

Its like a thick Tar trpe glue.

When I de-badged my old one it took me ages to get the shit off. Warm water and a abrasive pad but I dont recomened using that for the bump strips, takes ages and can strip the paint off with too much scrubbing.
