Was trying to clear out my tail lights. Gave up for today since I don't have the right tools. I need a dremel.

Anyway.. I got that glue on the taillight and it is impossible to get off.

What kind of product can get this gooey shiit off my light??

 

Any good cleaner wax should do the trick. Meguires or Mothers works great. Just polish it away!!!

 

don't use wax or polish on the tail lights..

use dish soap.. it comes right off..

if not..use a heat gun.. get the glue a little hot.. i have done over 50 tail lights.. and dish soap gets it off all the time

 

Try a little masking tape and tack it off! If this isn't working all that well, blot a little nail polish remover (acetone) on there and continue to tack off with tape.....Do not rub as this just speads it!

 

NO!!!! that will eff up the lens..

where are you guys getting this stuff? wax? acetone? wtf???

DISH SOAP man DISH SOAP

 

Sprint, I've done this before....It works fine! I would never miss inform someone. If I did not know, I say nothing! If dish soap works......Cool!

 

Thanx guys..I 'll try it tomorrow because it gets dark so early. I totally fudged up my clear lights. Didn't think it would be so hard. I have to pick up a dremel tomorrow. Thanx

 

If your buying a dremel to cut the clear plastic, you can use a soldering iron. Just cut it over size and sand it to fit! Soldering iron you might already have and if not it's much cheaper.

 

I was going to buy a dremel anyway because they are come in handy with all the attatchments. Thank for the advice guys. Hopefully it looks decent.

another question.
I see a lot of guys put them in the over..but there was no unanymous approach(some say 15 some 5). What if I preheat the oven at 200, then put in for 5 minutes and check it?

 

It will definately not need 15 minutes! 200/225F, 5min. tops.

 

well i know paint thinner kills the lens.. makes it warp.. i appologize for my ignorance

 

i use a heat gun.. makes me control my work easier..

when i started i used a soildering iron.. then i figure i would do them for some cash so i bought a dremel.. now it takes me 15 mins to do each light.. from start to finish

 

No man, no ignorance at all! If you were to bathe the lens in this harsh chemical it would comprimise it's clearity!....However, I was hoping this person would yeild at my words of "a little" and "blot" !!
