I've got back pad glue I need to take off to prep the engine bay for paint.
What's the best method? Thanks, Bill P. |

Just did that wonderful job before having my engine compartment painted. Just looking at your picture brought back the memories Bill.
What worked the best was adhesive remover (HD), but in the end it took off the paint as well, so I just stripped it clean. Apply remover. Let sit 25-30 minutes Clean off with power washer Start again. Took 3 times to get it perfect, but it wasn't hard work. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ALL THE CAR PAINT COVERED; OTHERWISE YOU'LL BE PAINTING MORE THAN YOU WANT. Brake cleaner works, but it does take a huge amount of time. And I don't know if you'd have any brain cells left after smelling that stuff for 5 or 6 hours. |
