john stones 1 - Moderator Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 As it says, I left the masking tape on the glazing after spraying a Cub, what's best way of getting off without scratching the surface, it's been there a few years and is a bit stubborn.

Bob Cotsford Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Try StickyStuff remover, it's pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
namustang1a Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 if you have an off cut still try an get hold of some tar/glue remover from a auto paint shop,or panel wipe .both are potent so a test is needed. ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Fry Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 White spirit. You will find its good soaked in some bog paper, and taped/ draped over the residue, but if old, a bit of patience is needed, just don't rub. That will scratch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john stones 1 - Moderator Posted March 24, 2016 Author Share Posted March 24, 2016 Tried meths and white spirit lads and no success, sticky stuff remover looks next option, thanks all John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Fry Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 John, have you tried soaking it. If it's been there for years it's going to take patience to get it off. Meths/ white spirit shifts masking tape glue. Try a mix of the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trebor Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 When you say glazing do you mean windows ? I used nail varnish remover, didn't do any damage to mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trebor Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Mine was a bit streaky as the other half uses posh nail varnish remover with some sort of additive to stop damage to her hands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
