I got mine off with IPA.

Not the real ale, but IsoPropylAlcohol.

A pure, strong solution. Obtained for me by someone who works in the medical profession... Wink

Isn't that the same thing soaked into medi wipes Question
Sounds like it's worth a try.

Nail polish remover will work - but be careful you don't strip the clear-coat off too.  Also try Turpentine (white spirit?) to soften it up and take it off with a chamois and car polish.  You'll probably need to chuck the chamois afterwards though Smile

Cheers

It's not them, lol  it comes in 5 litre cans it's a liquid, find a back street bodywork repairer & see if they will sell you a litre.

And the saga continues

Willow was never the right motor for the two dobies so er'in'doors finally decided to go for something a little larger.




Just got to convert her to LPG and the baby 90 will go up for sale.
Looks strange to see such a straight 80 sat next to my beast on the drive and the poor 90 has been relegated to the street.
