side strips (oem)

Post by mcgusto82 »

anybody know a good way to remove the residual adhesive from the stripes the dealers like to put on the cars? on my moving day from VA. my stripes starting sagging from the intense heat. so i decided to remove them by hand when i got home. now i have a very small line going down the car from the front to the back of glue. tried wipping it up, but it would take me all week. "ouch!"any ideas?

i mean the plastic lines that run aboput parallel the door handles. they start at the end of the headlights and end at the top of the tail lights. i magine a sticker on a window. you can peel it off with the glue behind it, but around the edges. that edge is dirt build up glue at the edge of the sticker.
