What's the best method for removing the glue residue left by vinyl numbers? A heat gun at low setting makes taking the numbers off easy, but how about the glue that's left?
Goof off? Thanks, Bill P. |

I use brake cleaner. It seems to work as well as all the other solvents. In my experience none of them works all that well - several applications are required to remove all the residue.
I have heard of but never seen a kind of eraser that goes in a drill and is used to remove the entire decal. I think they are available at auto paint suppliers. |
