I've have some sticky residue from what I am guessing was some of the transport wrapping on my truck. Its on the chrome part of the rear bumper. Anyone have any good ideas on getting this stuff off? Thanks in advance.

 

Hey KS...

I'm assuming this is like a 'sticky' material... like adhesive of some sorts?

If that be the case, you can take a very soft 100% cotton-terry towel and a product like bug and tar remover and remove it.

Be sure to follow with a good wax over the affected area as most of these types of products are harsh enough that they will remove any film build that you may already have present on the vehicle.

Thanks RP,

I'll pick some up tomorrow when I'm getting my clay kit. If the weather warms up, it's time to go to work on it.

 

My only other suggestion is to allow the B&T remover some 'dwell time' on the affected areas. Don't expect to spray it on and wipe it off; it'll need to sit there for a minute or five.

Goo Gone....

but a pink eraser will do the same thing.

 

Try some WD40...I've used it in the past and seems to work well with no ill effects I noticed.....another of its 1,000,000 uses

 

Used a bug/tar remover, let it sit about 6-8 minutes and it did nothing. I might try the goo gone.

 

Bummer kstate... sorry man. I've seen that work before.

I've never tried the goo gone but, I've heard others mention it. Further, I think someone mentioned WD-40... I have used this and it does work but, I'm always hesitant about utilizing a product for other than what it's meant to be used for....

3M Adhesive Remover. It's a much more effective product for removing adhesives than WD-40, Goo whatever A B C, and bug/tar remover.

 

I'm getting close to 3k on the truck, I'm starting to think about just having the dealer remove the crap at the oil change like they should have in the first place!
