Removing the sticky crap from an old badge

[ewan221]

When I bought the car it had really horrible after market badges, have a nice new liquidart one to go on back but having real trouble removing the sticky goo left from the double sided tape.

 

Have tried heating up with hair dryer, tar remover and rubbing with polish and not making much difference

 

Any ideas ??????

Try some white spirit on a microfibre

GooGone from Amazon does the trick. I spent ages faffing with a hairdryer and all sorts before this stuff did it in 5 minutes!

i always find a bit of degreaser like some WD-40 does the trick?

Caster oil will do the job

i always use white spirit and a lint free cloth.

No No you need ethanol or TSd3 (meths) trust me Im a doctor.

I just used Lighter fluid and a microfibre cloth for a bit of soft but bumpyness, came off fine. 10min job

 

[edit] Also used finger when it was wet with fluid and just rubbed in circles to take off the thickness of the sticky stuff
