Title: Removing sticker/decal goo from a frame
Post by: Swivel on October 24, 2007, 07:40 PM
Just removed mine from my streetbeat and there is a lot of goo / sticky stuff left on the frame. What is the easiest and safest way of removing this?

Cheers,

Matt  :daumenhoch:

i use castrol metal parts cleaner or some sort of contact /brake claener,have done for years,it cleans the shit off and is good to use before you fit the stickers too ,i also like maxima contact brake cleaner thats even better as it smeels of oranges,mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm yum yum
all of the above evaporate after spraying on,so leave no slime  :daumenhoch:

Just removed some frame stickers as my net connection has been down, and like the above said brake cleaner which i get from work or even petrol does a good job. JUST DONT SMOKE. :LolLolLolLol:

keep this under your hat, but i use the mrs perfumes, especially the ones i don't like, they actually work really well  :daumenhoch:
only problem is when she gets home from work she keeps accusing me of having other women in the house  ::)
