Guest Enzo Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 same herea buffing wheel is by far the quickest way of getting them off Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EarL Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 So the strips are just held on with glue?Cool. Mine are coming off this weekend then. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lobotomy Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
davehart Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
