|  New Bright Prep
Searched and didn't find so I'll ask. Does anyone have a tried and true method of easily removing the glue from the attached trim etc from New Bright bodies? Obviously I want to paint it...I got the "experience edition" and the big X paint scheme is hideous! I plan on trying a heat gun but I just hope the glue melts before the body does. Thanks In Advance for any help...  |

| I've read that acetone free nail polish remover works. |

My cousin did the brake cleaner and sanding route. His rig came out really nice. I'll see if I can find a picture to post...

I used acetone free fingernail polish remover to take the "New Bright" off the windshield and it worked very well, I dont know if it will work on the body graphics

I usually peel the sticker off as best I can then use Goo Gone Pro Power to get the rest. Leave it on for a few minutes and it should come right off. Used it on the windshield and body with no problems.

And for the paint on the body DOT 4 brake fluid (must be DOT 4 only) works like a charm. Some you also need to keep in mind is that some of their bodies have a dull coat on them so you'll need to scrub or San the whole body to get to bare plastic. | |
