removing glue stuff
Hi all
I have just removed all the roof lining and most of the carpet and side panels from "zoe". There is a very yukky underlay on the back doors ( I
think its for the sound stuff) but underthat there is a sticky glue that is so hard to get off.
Does anyone know if there is something that will remove it so I can get the panel ready for painting or is it just something I have to keep working on
with time it will come right?
Getting to the back set removal this weekend.
thanks for you help
Tania

I have tried all off the above for the same issue and someone had glued insulation to the roof with liquid nails. i ended up using goo off in a yellow
tin from bunnings expensive at $18 bucks a tin but saved so much effort and got everything off.
good luck!!

glue removal
White spirits is the trad stuff to use. a heat gun is also good but don't heat too much as spirits, prepsol or metho or turps or thinners could go
up. let it soak a bit then wipe 'dry' then some little heats and it should come off pretty easy. |
