Don't know where else on this site to post this question......My new Sonerai #14 Project has an 'old stock' blown bubble, that has the sticky type paper stuck to it.....Only problem, It's 'stuck' and will not come off. Anyone out there with experience with this problem?....Any type of liquid that I can pour on it to loosen the adhesive so I can polish it off?......Ed

Yup, we run into this at work a lot with old labels stuck to acrylic and carbon fiber. We use one of the products generically known as "orange cleaner". Spray it on, let it soak. It will weaken the bond to the point where you can peel the paper off. Then spray again and let it soak into the remaining adhesive and wipe the gunk off with a clean cotton rag. (Don't use a paper towel as paper products have minerals that can scratch). Might have to spray and wipe several times to get it all, but it has not failed us yet. There are likely several formulations, so try it on a discreet area first. When the work's done your canopy will smell like fresh oranges for a while.  Tom |

Source: www.autogeek.net/xenit.htmlAuto parts stores may have it, or you can get it from the link. About $6 for a can. One can may do the entire canopy. Hope it works for you, Ed. Tom |
