Any household products that will remove the left over sticky stuff after taking number plate off?

Put new legal plate on, it looks pants and ive now got a horrible sticky black strip on the bumper where it was beforehand

 

Isopropynol Alcohol hand cleaning gel as used in hospitals and the like works wonders on adhesive markings

 

cool, shame ive got none

thanks though

 

ive got some in the house Sarah

 

Get a hairdryer out warm it up and either pick at it with your fingers or use a card of some sort of squeegee to remove. Take off any remaining residue with some tar remover.

yes but your not likely to come and drop it off are you, cos your the laziest man i know FACT

tried heating it up and rubbing at it, Lee now has blisters on ends of his fingers

Nail varnish remover

 

If you were closer i could be tempted, but as you're not... then no

 

tried it didnt touch it

 

wd40

 

+1

 

will try wd40 tomorrow

 

Yeah, wd40 takes off sticky residue, the oil based residue would be diluted and wiped away by it.

 

a makeshift
blowtorch using an aerosol and a match or a 60 grit sandpaper will remove it

 

petrol is what i used to get all the glue off the side of ma car that was left by the door strips ! it works really well ! but a fair bit of elbow grease needed

 

thanks for that

 

If all else fails brake cleaner will get it off.

 

+ Elbow grease.
