Goo-Gone Stain on paint

Recently I debadged my truck of all emblems (thanks toyota for having so many of them) and getting them off wasn't issue since it was new but the goo-gone has left drip stains on the sides of my truck. I've done this previously and never had this issue...any suggestions on how to get rid of these stains? I've already washed it a few times and really went to town trying to buff them out while washing.

 

Did you use a rubbing compound or just soapy water? If you just scrubbed with soapy water I'd try a rubbing or polishing compound.

 

Just soapy water. I'll try either one of those out

 

Original Goo gone is a petroleum based product. It should never be used on automotive paint. It’s like putting thinner on it.

 

Never use goo gone!!! It fucked up the paint on my old car

 

Try nu finish ...

 

Goof Off works and is safe for paint.

 

A professional detailer with an orbital buffer should be able to get those out.

 

I second nu-finish. It's just abrasica enough to take it right off.

 

Goo gone the stain

 

There is goo gone and goof off. The packaging is very similar. One kills paint and one doesn't.

Seems like you used an awful lot. I've only used a tiny amount already put on a towel before.

 

So, "goo off" is OK ---- But, not Goo gone? Is this correct?

 

I've always understood it to be the opposite.

 

I use neither

 

I've used goo gone before and had no issues with it on my previous cars..i did use a little more than usual because the adhesive was 3 times harder than i've ever dealt with.

 

Doesn't help you much, but when I took mine off, I did one side with goo gone and the other with bug and tar. The bug and tar was much easier.

I bet you'll get that stuff off easily with a buffer.

 

Neither should be used. to debadge any vehicle, use fishing line to take the emblem off. then use an eraser wheel on battery power drill and slowly remove the glue. Dont concentrate the eraser wheel in one spot to avoid burning through the paint. Works great and you wont have any streaks in your clear coat.

 

Ok then, what do you folks use to get sticker goo off of car paint?

 

Next time use a heat gun, tooth floss and an adhesive eraser wheel. The cleanest and safest way to do it.

Try a rubbing compound to remove the stains.

 

i just told you, an eraser wheel.
