I have just been removing Corsa 1.2 16v from the boot and there is still traces of glue and a faint outline of where the letters were. I have tried white spirits, hairdryer and T-Cut and i can still see the outline and bits of glue...anyone else any other idea's that i could use?

tbh i used my o2 top up card, but that was for getting the main body of the sticky stuff off. as for the residue thats left behind it was just auto glym and then a lil polish after

wd40 is supposed to be decent at geting the sticky stuff off - i would recomend bit elbow grease though - always a winner - may take a while - but gets there in the end
