Here's a post to me from Max-Wellhouse: "Bob: 3M makes a Roloc Tool for your electric drill called an "Adhesive and pin striping removal" tool. It's a bunch of white plastic discs that flex when pressured at high speed. They work wonderfully. Less than $15 for the whole kit and available at most any larger auto body parts place." Dimwitted Moose and Flying Squirrel I wound up getting a round rubber disk that attaches to your drill. It "erases" the decals really well, turns them into little loose bundles of decal and does a great job without messing with the paint finish. The "loosener" fluid is also decal remover and you'll probably find both at the same place. IIRC I got mine at a auto body shop store that sells DIY materials. bob |
