Default spoiler removed but I need something to help me remove 3m tape off

Guys,

The spoiler was removed and it left some black 3m adhesive tape behind. What product is safe to help me remove it off?

I tried some zaino polish, but its still hard. Any recommendations?


Tony

Turtle Wax Bug and Tar remover works good for me. I know some people use GooGone, but I know the Turtle Wax is Clear Cloat safe that is why I use it.

Go to a signs shop and ask is they can sell you some glue remover (they might sell you like $10)

and this stuff its the best

3M sells a adhesive remover made specifically for this purpose.

I just finish half way of striping the adhesive off. The effort to remove the spoiler and adhesive makes me want to see a finger specialist



For the "Nissan" Hamburger Emblem, I just bought 3M adhesive for it (super duty). Should be good enough? I have the roadster so there was no pins/holes.
