Removing the glue from the interior

Inlägg av aadewar »

Hello,

We have removed the quilted lining from the cabin on our IF, and we want to remove the old glue that remains.

We have tried mineral spirits and WD40, but it seems to be stubborn.

Is there any trick that is known?

Thank you,

Aaron

I found that Dilunett Gel remover (an unfortunate name for a product designed to leave gel intact) softens old contact adhesive sufficiently for it to be removed with a wet scourer. Do wear gloves though or it will burn your skin.

Thanks, John, I'll look for a US equivalent.
