kick plates

[gorisan26]

Just took me kick plates off as I'm not to into the idea of them scuffing through the paint, Question is any bright ideas as to how I should remove that super sticky foam? It's old and very stuck!

Try and get as much of it off by heating it up with a hair dryer, then T cut it to get the rest off.

Remember, you can only use T cut on cars old than 5 years, otherwise it will f@ck your paint.

doesn't matter how old your car is you'll end up putting more scratches in it than anything else with t-cut. Better to use something like scratch-x from meguiars (easily available from halfrauds) if you have to polish anything! t-cut is old school and doesn't break down at all so is as hard/rough as when you first put it on to when you stop rubbing it in. Newer polishes breakdown and get smoother/finer as you keep using them. The other factor which can be detrimental is that T-cut contains ammonia which will dry out the paint surface and lead to further oxidisation and fading.

When you've got most of it off using heat, then use WD40 and a rag

spray on and just rub back and forth back and forth, it will feel like youre making it worse but keep at it, it will remove the foam and the glue too.

It will take some doing, and you'll hate me half way through, but you'll invite me to hump your sister when it's finished.

if you've no wd40 white spirits will work to, but as said above takes a while!
