Cleaning glue off plexi glass

Recommended Posts

I have a job replacing vinyl on a plexy glass donut case

the decals are gone but there is a good amount of the old glue on there

I don't want to use a blade on it or thinner to remove it thinking I will do damage

What do you all suggest I use that will remove the old glue but not harm the plexy glass ?

I use Goof-Off and a credit card.

The Goof-Off softens the adhesive to a gummy consistency and the credit card pulls it off.

I use this on the side of the race car when I have to replace the number because someone has put a round tire burn on my numbers and smeared them off the side.

It is oily, so you will need a good cleaner to clean it off when you finish removing the adhesive.

I use simple green, because it doesn't mar the surface.

Alcohol works, but takes a lot of work and can sometimes cloud the plexi.

GOOD LUCK!!!
