Adhesive Residue

[bronzeflex42]

I removed some graphics (stickers or decals) off my RT's saddle bags. What is the best stuff to use to remove the glue residue without damaging the paint? :dontknow:

I have found WD40 works great without damaging paint.

 

[SPECTACUALR SPIDERMAN]

rubbing alcohol or baby wipes

A product called "Goo Gone" works really well also.

For me it seems if Goo Gone does not work WD 40 will. If WD 40 does not work Goo Gone will.

All good suggestions

Many....

But if you don't go for the specific ones WD40 is your best bet. And it smells way better,,,,:roflblack:

I found WD-40 works almost every time for me..

Goo Be Gone has acetone in it.... It will work on chrome and metal but for sure I would not use it on the plastic windshield. Might be OK on the paint but test it somewhere you won't notice first.

AND ALSO !

All the removal schemes are okay. But... whatever you use, and no one else addressed this yet,
NEUTRALIZE after use. Have a bucket of soapy water and a mitt or whatever, and just the second
the adhesive is gone wash the heck out of the entire area.

:agree: All is very time consuming. Get you elbows ready!! Please do Not try "goof off" or any other chemicals for removing gummy stuff. The alcohol will evaporate clean & leave no residue. :2thumbs:

According to the MSDS Goo Gone does not contain acetone.

Interesting.... OK... I think it use to though... Sure smells like Acetone.

I used WD-40 and a credit card. Sprayed on let sit for about 10 seconds, used card to scrape up the glue and it came right off. I washed it with soap and water afterwards. Thanks for all the suggestions and this forum. hyea:

Goo gone. I've used it for years with no issues. Works great. After I use it I normally wash the area then use some kind polish or wax
