i have brought the factory lip spoiler for the ae82 (the rubbery one) and it is currently painted in a red paint. does anyone have any ideas on how to get the paint off??
paint thinners doesnt work, i dont really want to put stripper on it and obviously cant sand it off.
any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated
thanks

heat gun + scraper = solution
put thinners/wax grease remover and let it soak for a while and get the gum off afterwards

have you tried what ae86slaver said?
if you don't have a heat gun, use a blow dryer, but you'll be sitting there a pretty long time
