Hi
On the door of the car I used to have a bumper protector,
After long time the protector just wont leave the door...
Any idea on how to remove & clean this?

Thank you very much.

Don't use that.

3m makes paint safe adhesive remover. Comes in spray can, less than 5 bucks.

Edit: item number 03618

WD-40, rubbing alcohol, Goof Off, Goo Gone, etc...just make sure you wax after removal, these items will all take the wax off as well as the "goo".

Any good acrylic cleaner will do it.

I used goo-gone to take off the little dealer emblem when I first got my car, but you really have to put some elbow-grease in to get that stuff off. I am sure there has to be something better than goo-gone
