K750's side cover .
15 Mar 2011 22:15
I have a quick one for all of you . What is the best way to get a sticker off of a side cover that is being stubborn ? I have tried Goo Gone and Heat but it just stays there looking at me . I was thinking about hitting the side covers with some primer and paint before I do the tank . I have thought about just using some glaze and filling in the edges but I do not know how well it would work . You can see it in this Pic.
I am going to change the color to red .

If you're going to paint it, why not just sand it off? an orbital should get rid of it quick enough...

if you are going to repaint it, just sand it off.

Tried a hair dryer? Just enough heat to loosen the adhesive should do it.

Good old heat loosens many things, I once told someone with a stuck gas cap to apply heat using a hair dryer, it worked for him too.

It is off .I used a little finger nail palish remover and a hair drier and it came right of . Now it has primer and paint on it . I have to do some sanding and another coat of color and then clear but it looks nice all ready . Thanks again for all your help .
