    Pin stripe glue

    I took off my pin stripes but there are tiny spots of clue left on....what should I use to take it off? I've tried Bug and Tar remover but it was a pain in the ass to use and it didn't do a great job at taking it off.

    Use some goof off or a similar product. It might help to heat up the glue with a heat gun or hair dryer.

    You can use laquer thinner (probably spelled that wrong) but you know the stuff used to thin out paint usually. Use that, but if you do try to wipe it off fast, just don't let it soak for a few minutes or anything. Once you wipe it down with a wrag just a lil bit the glue should come off really easy. I hear that goo gone or goof off or whatever works too though, so I guess it's all just a matter of what you have on hand.

    I used my clay bar. It took it all off without worrying about using solvent on the paint.

    Second the Goo-Gone. I've used it on residue from pinstripes and the i-VTEC stickers with no problems.

    When you get it off, immediately wash & wax the area, preferably with the same stuff you use normally.
