Removing tank gaurd
 

Hi
I have a tank gaurd which is coming looseand it has the old glue on the back. I am going to take it off and buy a new one, is there anything good to use for taking off this old glue which sticks to the tank ?
Thanks again for any help

use a hair drfier to heat it up and they normaly come of just ok.
Good luck.

The one I have on now is peeling off and under is the old glue so I was wondering is there anything to take anyglue off that is left on the tank when I remove the gaurd ?

Lighter fluid or ordinary petrol worked for me. Meths might be worth a try.

What do you need a hairdryer for Bob? Didn't think you had any hair...:lol::P

Its the wifes hairdrier so there.
By the way I have not told her about you and our love child. Doh! I new I should not have mentioned that on here, now everybody will know our secret.:(

Petrol should do it nicely.

Heard that WD40 will work, never tried it me self though.

I brought a stick on tank guard made of real carbon fibre...it was rubbish. The weave wasn't sealed by anything except the backing glue and the fibres quickly started fraying cos they didn't stick in the glue properly.

In fact the only thing that the glue stuck to like a limpet was the paintwork, left big old snotty blobs of it all over...Good old WD40 shifted it.
