I've bought a set of seconhand STi entry/sill protectors and I'm trying to get the darn old double sided tape off.
It appears nuclear blast proof, as so far I've tried a hair dryer and a razor blade but it's going to take a month of Sundays.

Any seasoned pro out there with any tips?

 

tried a little petrol? i have used this to remove the double-sided tape that holds badges on. doesn't damage paintwork either providing it is washed off

 

Hair dryer? You big girl; get a heat gun and some welders gloves. Be very carefull what you heat up though.....

 

try tar and glue remover you can get it from any car shop

 

thinners does the trick.

 

WD40 will remove most adhesives without damaging rubber or paint, let it soak for a while.

 

Acetone (nail varnish remover)

 

Elbow grease gets my vote

 

another vote for WD40, although has any one thought its about time they updated the design of the can and logo? I cant believe they still sellotape the red straw to the side of it! An the graphics are the same as when I was "knee high to a grasshopper".

 

I was going to vote for WD40 until I realised my alter ego had done the same ...LOL
