Just wanted to give an endorsment (no, im not affiliated) to the 3M wood grain remover product.
I had tried just about every way I could think of to get the woodgrain decal off of my rig.
The single BEST and EASIEST way that I had found was by using the 3M stuff. There is a trick that I found...
Apply the stuff pretty heavy let it sit on there for about 10 min. Grab a hair dryer and a pair of jersey gloves (the gloves protect your hands from the heat). Begin heating a section of the decal with the stuff on, then start rolling the crap off as you would with rubber cement, just keep the heat to it...Took me about an hour to do 2 door panels where it took me HOURS and HOURS (no Im not exagerating) using any other method.
Now, the stuff is PRICY...31 bucks a can from NAPA...I burned through 4 of them, applying it, letting it sit, then try to scrape it off, before I used the method described above.
This also takes off a LOT of the adhesive residue as well with it.
I might also add that it had NO effect on my paint.
Now, this may be elementry to some, but Ill have to be honest...Im not terribly bright, so this was a very big find for me to figure this out.
This is just an FYI for anyone who cares to know it!
I wish that Id have known it earlier...
Hope this will help someone somewhere!
