Bonnet Wrap gone wrong...
« on: March 14, 2014, 05:32:01 pm »
So I got watching some vids today and had a go at wrapping my bonnet and it came out with load of bubbles so I decided to remove it and now I have glue all over the bonnet that I can take off, anyone know what i can use to take that glue off without causing any more damage to the paint work :booty:


The bonnets f*cked at the moment, it has glue all over it I want to take it of asap because dust is going to start sticking help help help!!!!!!!!

tar/adhesive remover i wouldnt use white spirits on nothing than a small area.. wouldnt start rubbing it over the whole bonnet lol

did you heat the vinyl up when you took it off.. doesnt usually leave much behind if heated up
