Badge adhesive removal

Hello,

I've looked in the WIKI and can't find anything on this!
I've removed the rear tailgate badges to re-paint the camper and am left with the black, sticky double sided tape.
Does anyone know how to remove this as I've tried and tried, without much success.

Any ideas appreciated.

Try a toffee wheel / stripe removal wheel. Fits on a drill and removes adhesive, stickers or whatever without damaging paint. Go easy though and don't allow it to get too hot and burn the paint. Best to practice on something else first, but they do work well.

Cheers, j

Lot of places sell 'sticky stuff remover' - cheap and will get it all off.

This sounds odd but works incredibly well on sticker residue. WD40!
Put it on a cloth and keep rubbing and putting a little more on.
Works wonders without damaging paintwork.
Great on old window sticker residue too.

All removed with WD40 and elbow grease.

Many thanks for your help.
