The warning sticker got peeled off and left residue, any tips on what cleaner would take this off easily?

Just want to make sure I don't do any damage. Is Goo Gone or something safe to use?

Thanks,

 

WD-40 always seems to be a safe option

 

Yes.

 

Ive always used 3m adhesive remover and have yet to cause damage.

WD-40.

I know more than a few body pros who recommend it for masking tape residue. Since it's on a painted surface, it should be fine. you might want to lightly dampen a rag or soft sponge with it, and wipe with that so you don't end up with WD in the plastic and carpet and all over the cab.

and you might want to follow up with something to remove the less volatile component of the WD-40. Buffing with a soft dry rag like you might use on eyeglasses would be what I would use. But a lightly dampened and maybe slightly soapy sponge would almost certainly work, or a chamois rinse.

 

Goo Gone works no petroleum in it so it cant hurt anything and no petroleum smell of wd.

 

Goo-Gone is orange based, so it should not be a problem on your painted dash trim surface. However, always test on a hidden area first.

 

I've used hand lotion with lanolin in it. It works on most every sticky stuff. It takes off epoxy resin(before it dries) and every label adhesive I've tried it on and I've been using it for years. The bonus is that it leaves your dash baby skin smooth . Most of our wives or girl friends have at least three bottles laying around because "they don't like that brand". It all works the same and its cheap!!! Give it a try.

 

I did mine with WD 40. Works like a champ.

 

You can also use another piece of tape.

You can smooth a new piece of sticky tape like duct-tape, bub it down over the old stuff, and then sloooowly peel it off. Some of the sticky residue will come off on the duct tape. It may take several tries, but slow removal is the key to it.

 

I used WD40 followed by Windex. Now I just wish I could get the decals off the visors.

 

used WD40, thanks for the help!

 

i used non-chunky peanut butter. the peanut oil dissolves any kind of sticky residue.

 

I used a belt sander - there is not 1 speck of sticky stuff left!

 

Goo-Gone is your best friend for those kind of jobs.

It's plastic-friendly, and smells so good!

 

WADR, that sounds like a really bad idea to me. Duct tape is as sticky as it is because it can actually ionically bond to many types of surfaces (try putting two strips together sticky side in and pulling them apart in a dark room). It can be as bad for paint as bumper stickers. On a fresh, new surface with a short exposure, you might not pull any paint off, but it's certainly not a risk I'd be willing to take.
