i bought some used window visor and the wanted to replace the double sided tape. i tried heat gun and it gets most of it off but still leaves a layer or stickie.. i also used some "goof off" but its way too slow.. i need to make like 6 passes to clean a 1 inch area. takes too long. any easier way to remove the double side tape off the plastic window visor. ????

WD-40 and then wash with soap and water.

i'll give that a try..

wd-40 didnt work that well (better then Goo-Off).. any other way? or will i just need to sit there and take my time and scrap it off with wd-40?

try zippo lighter fluid. Thats what i use to remove any sticky goo from tapes or stickers

Use rubbing alcohol! It gets anything sticking off of just about any surface & doesn't hurt the surface material. It works!

I agree. Put some on a towel and it takes a little rubbing but it works

Rubbing alcohol can harm painted surfaces... just an FYI. If using on painted surfaces, it is best to dilute down to a 15% solution to be very safe.

use a heavy duty degreaser apply it with a tiny painters brush. worked great for me and didnt damage the plastic at all. if it does fade the plastic a bit, use rubbing compound to bring back the shine.
