HI all,

my car has some sticky residue on the paint from various sponsors stickers and race numbers etc. Its not too bad when the car is clean but dust sticks to them so after an event you can see all of the outlines of the old stickers. The paint is old and weak so I don't want to be too harsh.

Autosmart Tardis or Valet Pro Cirus TAr & Glue remover are my current favorites.

Petrol. Ideally lighter fluid, but unleaded's OK, just wash it off after
