Residual adhesive on dashboard

**isketi** · June 13th, 2005 08:52 AM

Hi cleaning gurus! I've decided to remove the Dashield of my car but there are residual adhesive left from the double sided tape. I tried to clean them with soap & water using a sponge but they wouldn't come off. My neighbor suggested using kerosene but I'm afraid it would discolor or whiten my dash and of course it would smell inside the car. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

3M Adhesive Remover bro...

or try WD-40 (pero your car would reek of that smell)

Eureka! I've done it folks! Used tire dressing (yung parang baby oil), tanggal ang mga residual adhesive!

Ang problema ko naman ngayon kumintab yung dash, kakasilaw pag nasinagan ng araw.

*isketi? tire black bro? ang lagkit nyan ah. tsaka, in the long run, baka mag crack and peel yung dash mo.

what i would suggest you to do is to remove the excess compound by using a clean dry cloth, and top it of with armor all. also wipe it after by a clean dry cloth, para mawala yung kintab.

IMO di natanggal yung adhesive, the Tire dressing merely covered the adhesive, Tire dressing doesn't have cleaning properties kaya medyo impossible na matanggal yan. Try spraying some APC to remove the excess dressing.

tanggalin mo yang tire black sa dash mo malakas maka-stain yan... I bet that's really oily.. hehehe

so wipe it off with some soft cloth and just buff to a nice matte finish. so parang mukhang bago na din.
