Daniel01 Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 I'd recommend the autoglym intensive tar remover, seemed to work pretty well on mine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoScars Posted April 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 how much is it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dblock Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 (edited) Look at the right. Look at his arm compared to the left one. But seriously Autosmart tardis is good and cheap. Edited April 24, 2014 by Dblock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoScars Posted April 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Ill have to look it up and get some when im paid thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stator Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Can't really see what it is, are they scratches in the paint or something on top of the paint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dblock Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Also never ever use t cut. It's like sanding your paint. Not good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stator Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 I had some similar scuff marks after using t-cut (too much). I then used a colour restorer, buffed it a lot and you can't see them any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoScars Posted April 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 (edited) Its like mini straches and gluey stuff i dunno, what to use to get it clean and looking like paint work, but the starches go when washed or wet Edited April 24, 2014 by GeoScars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoScars Posted April 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 Ive used the tar remover and its not working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dblock Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 For the glue or the scratches? You leaving it on for just a few seconds then wiping it off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoScars Posted April 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 Yeah it seems to be like working then I wipe it off and I'm back were i started so I'm confused :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brucyy Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 I removed mine, and when I give my car a really good wash i get a few of those faded/scratch marks come up. Being careful with t-cut did get rid of some of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJB-09 Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Put your bump strips back on 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stator Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Rubbing compound? Then a new coat of laquer maybe? Although you will have to spray the whole door if you want to avoid overspray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haydyybear Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 Did you sort this? As I've recently brought a lupo and I've just tried removeing the back half of the bump strip and I've been left with similar marks and I've tried ag tar remover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyR4 Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 I know its been a while since this was posted but try using WD40 with a clean rag it'll get rid of the glue and any tar. then wash the w40 off and polish the car up.
