ok, so i took all my badges off this weekend and they all left a residue on the plastics. I went to kv and seen alot of people used wd-40. Since thats all i have around here that i wasn't wooried about trying, i gave it a shot on the flyscreen....NOTHING!

I also have goof off but it clear says on the back that it will harm MOST plastics.

i also have greased lightning that says it will work on plastics but im kinda nervous about using it.

think im going to try and spray some on the back of the flyscreen where nobody would see if it messed it up!

any other suggestions?

Goo Gone works well.

Rubbing alcohol might work, try it on a small area first to see if it will damage.

I used Goo Gone as well, worked good, still took some effort (and a few blusters rubbing on the rubber boogers) But all came off.

Only side effect was that my hands smelled like oranges for a week.

I use Oops! Comes in an aerosol can, you can find it at Walmart in the paint section.

The trick is to give the WD 40 a little time to penetrate the residue.

Spray it on heavily, till it's running all over the place, wipe up run off with paper towel.

Let sit for about 10 minutes.

Should wipe right off.

I think.
