    help po

    i attached blind spots (stick on with double adhesive tapes) on my side mirrors. that was around 5 yrs ago. nong natangal sya, nag leavee ng stains, both the adhesive and the round shape (dont know how to describe it).

    i tried removing the stains with car shamppoo, clerview windshield cleaner pero ayaw pa rin matangal.

    any advise??

    Try something acidic perhaps(vinegar). Warm water and soap also.
    Polishing compound might work or baka pwede madetail yan sa bigberts...

    The stain you're seeing is actually the original color of the glass covered by the circular blindspot mirror. After 5 years, the portion not covered by the blindspot mirror may have since faded and will appear lighter.

    What you can do is either have the side glass mirrors replaced or get another pair of blindspot mirrors to cover the spots.
