Help me clean off this Motorcycle Glue....

[i'm the girl]

Ok. This weekend's project involves fixing my brother-in-law's bike he wrecked because hes a MORON.... but Im having trouble getting the adhesive off the back of the fairing so i can fiberglass properly (The fairing is the plastic panel on either side or the front of the bike. the fairings are lined with shock absorbing, flame resistant foam... i got the foam off but the adhesive itself is stuck stuck stuck)

This stuff is mad sticky and I'm tired of my razorblade and sandpaper

does anyone out there have any tips to get this glue off before i go completely nuts ?

Thanks : )

You like the chick that really got into this site... I swear you should open up a shop.

Try GooGone. Maybe that will work.

Look I was already into this shit... but other forums were pretty beat... so you guys are alright


... and yeah we are starting a business


thanks, man : )
and thanks everybody -- i might have to try that shave stuff, too -- this shit is ridiculous


**edit:** duh why didn't I think of acetone ... ha ha i never paint my nails...

Mayo my mom uses it to cut through anything sticky. Works better than goo gone for me!

Acetone will probably work. I never used it for anything myself, so I dunno firsthand.

'Lecrtic Shave (yeah, that's the actual name of the above mentioned product... it was the first thing I ever shaved with) may work. I never used it for that purpose!

Hey thanks for all the good tips... none of which worked

It's good to know, I guess, that this glue really does its job... almost too well

we can't even burn it off (of course, i didn't try this AFTER the gasoline ha ha )

....so its back to sandpaper and elbow grease for me

That stuff rocks. I got permanent marker out of a rug with it.

I bet acetone will work. I'm trying to think...its like nail polish remover. I used to use it all the time at work to clean up polymer spills.
