Hi everyone. I have a car that i need to remove the bodykit on it. the kit is fiberglass and would perfer to get it all off in one peace, but what i wanted to ask is that the skirts are stuck on with silicon gel / bonding glue. this sticks the firber glass to the metal of the body of the car. great at the time as it holds very well. I know i have to carefully cut the skirt off which is fine but this will leave some of the rubbery glue still on the bodywork. is there a solution that i can buy or use that will either remove the rubberly glue or at desolve it in a way that wont damage the paint on the car? I relise that I could pick it all off but this is very time consuming and i dont fancy sanding it down and respraying the car. any ideas are greatly welcome. thank you in advance.

You could try a 'toffee' wheel available from good automotive paint suppliers.It's a soft rubber wheel that fits in a drill it will 'wear' the sealant off woth no damage to paint if you do not apply too much pressure

I'd imagine that the paint underneath the glue would be knackered by now.
