I had a small can of the virgin laquer thinner laying around so thought I would use it to remove the backpad glue in the engine compartment. It blew right through the glue...then through the paint...finally stopping at the primer coat.
Is there a difference between virgin and regular? I just wanted to remove the glue from the firewall, the old paint *was* in good condition. |

I thought up about five different replys to your "virgin" question but I better not.
So I'll just give you what I know. I actally never heard of virgin LT but I've used a cleaner call "Goo Be Gone" (or something like that) that works good. Also carb cleaner or brake cleaner. But don't let them sit for long as they will attack the paint. Wipe on-wipe off. Paul |
