Nice how to mate. I gave it a quick shot just then and works as decribed. Spewing the paint under the rubber is a different color lol, useless backyarders...

Thanks for that Needwork, unlucky about the colour difference, damn dodgy work experience kids hahaha.

and camo645 they probably would do it for you, but would charge you pretty crazy amounts. You'd be better off going to a local panel beater probably

on my vx i didnt even use the hair drier and fishing wire, i just used a screwdriver wrapped it around with cloth so it didnt scratch my paint, and got the end a bit loose, then just slowly pulled it up with my hands, came off no problems, did this to all of them took about 40 minutes. about to get the glue off now my caramel wheel came in today

the caramel wheel works great, had to stop for the moment because the drills battery needs to recharge, but hopefully i should have it all off by tonight

if you cut and polish it the colour usually goes to normal just what my mate did to his.

just wondering, where did people get a caramel wheel from? Bunnings, Auto1, SuperCheap, none had heard of them or had them

you can get them from automotive paint supply shops. Just check your yellow pages and ring around
