  • Gunk remooval Product.

    Hi all.

    hopefully this might be useful to a few people. I removed the trim off the inner arches [interior side] & was left with this old glue, similar stuff is found under the door rubbers & things above the door cars. Previous experience has taught me that scraping and sanding is an option but obviously very harmful to the paint work.

    So I used this product. $10 from Bunnings. bit of muscle & a rag and hey presto, the gunk comes off. It's not a perfect thing, it requires a fair bit of time & muscle but its' worth it if you don't want harm the paint. [disclaimer]Having said that, it may rub a tiny bit of the paint off, but nothing a bit of a polish wouldn't cover & fix.

      A heat gun and wax n grease remover never failed me. You have to use them almost at the same time so it helps to have another person and you will probly burn your fingers a bit . Everything comes off heeps easy with it, less muscle and time. It wont work without the heat gun though.

        I've tried this stuff to remove the residue of stickers off my bonnet, but no luck.

        I thought it would / could do the job but not at all

          Heat gun FTW!! Use it in combination with one of these products and it should do the trick, it worked with wax and grease remover. Before the heat gun the glue wouldnt move at all with wax and grease remover alone. Heat it up a bit and it comes off like butter.
