    Dealer sticker residue

    The dealer did a half-a$$ed job of removing the other dealer's sticker on my new car. I used a glue-gone product to get the sticky off. Obviously didn't do a good job, there is some dirt outline of the letters. Do I do it again with glue-gone or use something else?

    Personally, right or wrong I'd just go over the area with some polish and say F it.

    Re: Dealer sticker residue

    I use 3M Adhesive Remover and it does a very good job with a little elbow grease. I have heard really good things about Rapid Remover too.

    Never tried the other methods but I know that Goo-Gone is not that great. The few times I have tried it I was really not impressed with the results.
