  • Wow, the 3M product is incredible. It removed the adhesive residue from a tennis racket head protection tape that was probably 30+ yrs old without much effort.

    As old sign guy, I can tell you lighter fluid (naphtha) is the go to... It dries quickly and is safe on every surface type. No residue whatsoever. And it just works better than anything else.

    Wooohooo! WD-40 did it. Thank you for saving me a lot of time. I vinyl wrapped the roof of my 4Runner and the hail and weather eventually tore up the vinyl and after removing it i had a lot of spots with glue and mud caked on. This took care of it beautifully.

    3M adhesive remover works just fine. Golfers who do their own re-grips know "golf grip solvent" is one of the best adhesive/glue/label removers you'll ever find.

    The WD 40 works amazingly well!! Thanks so much!!
  • Yes, thanks for the suggestions. 3-IN-ONE Multiple purpose OIL has worked! Greetings from Croydon, south of London
  • I deal with glues and contact adhesives on a daily basis. The best way to get any of them off is with Xylol or mineral spirits (xylol is just a better grade of mineral spirits). It takes some elbow grease in some cases, but if you keep after it, mineral spirits will work. You are absolutely right about goo gone, it is worthless. Mineral spirits is way less expensive than the 3 M product, which is probably just mineral spirits anyway.

    Thank you!! I tried nail polish remover, a paste, and then I tried this on a glass jar and it worked sooo fast and easy! You saved me so much time !!
  • @golondriz3
    Thank you!! It helped me remove some caulk film on my travertine tiles in the bathroom ❤❤❤👍👍👍
  • You sir are a genius! I just bought a brand new vent hood. Literally the whole grill 30 inches filled with stuck on glue 😡😡😡😡 That WD40 took it right off
  • I removed a sticker on my new motorcycle and used heat and goo gone, it still left behind some spots do you think the 3m would help where it’s dried and been on there a while now
  • Does WD-40 remove double sided thick adhesive on auto emblem/decal badges on your car?
  • @sallyc.9017
    Thanks for sharing these products. I have a job to remove adhesive from my fiberglass shower. I hope the WD40 works for me as well as it did for you. If not, I'll try the other product.

    Hi, what would you suggest for removing glue residue from vinyl interior?
  • @McQueenFamily8
    Hi, I have an old vinyl fabric headliner with old, darkened glue residue in the corners. Any suggestions? I’m ready to replace the headliner, so I don’t mind experimenting…just in case I can save it.
  • The 3M Adhesive Remover is also available in a spray can, which is what I have.
  • @UncleMilty
    Hard to find but rubber cement thinner is excellent. Wont harm finishes. Can find at art stores. Sometimes.
  • Hi I found your channel today. I have a Peugeot Partner 1.6 Hdi diesel. I had a main computer failure. And the car start to smoke a lot. I repaired that. But now I have a problem with greasy unburned fuel mostly on back of my car. Car is a regular white collar not metallic. And is the factory paint job. Can you recommend me something to clean this mess without hurting my paint ? Thank you !

    Big fan of the 3M adhesive remover, little pricey but it works. Professional product - professional results, fairly quickly, won't damage paint.
