    Default Black glue behind trolly strips *help required*



    A majority of the glue was really easy to pick off, but i've come down to a harder glue and its a real pain in the ass. I'm using metho, WD40, terps, nothing softens it up?

    Any help and information would be much appreciated.

    thanks, tristan

    Looks the same pattern and glue as my vn lol. I just got the heat gun out and heated the panels till it returned the glue to rubber again then just rolled it back off.

    definately heat and a rubber wheel, be extremely carefull as cutting to far has adverse effects. don't use metho or other products, that'll just **** your paint.
