WHATS UP WITH THIS SHIT

chrisheltra · 05-15-2007, 06:48 PM

GOTCHA. I BET YOU THOUGHT I WAS GONNA SAY SOME CRAZY SHIT!

How do I get the rubber of of my side skirts? I managed to get most of the chunky shit off, but the stuff that is left over is just smearing and makin a mess. I know I should have done something so that it would not get there in the first place but I forgot and now it looks like SHIT

WD-40. Bug and Remover. Mineral Spirits

LXtasy · 05-15-2007, 06:57 PM

WD-40 and/or glass cleaner

Pledge prevents it on the fenders or you could do painters tape.

I use rubbing alcohol to get pine sap off of my cars. It is the only thing that touches that shit. Just make sure that you apply some type of wax after. It may work to get that off.

and I didnt have any WD-40 around

I've had good luck with bug and tar remover. Helps to spray the fenders with detailing spray before I run.

Mineral spirits is little cheaper than Bug and tar remover. Both are basically mineral spirits. Kerosene also will work well with tar too.

Try coating the fenders before you go to the track like one suggested. Make it even easier to come off. I've seen people using painters tape, go-jo, detail spray. Helps make it was off easier.

Simple Green works well.

I've had good luck with 3m adhesive Remover.

But I have since cured the problem with my Bogarts.

The offset is perfect, so now all the rubber stays in the wheel well.
