Surf City Garage Road Trip destroys grime...and adhesives!


I have this V8 powered RX7 that I hoped would be more of a track car than a street car, but it hasn't been like that. It's a convertible that does not have a convertible top anymore. It has a serious roll bar and an aggressive stance. But it's useless when there is rain. I recently attended the Hot Rod Power Tour and got caught in the rain. Anticipating this, I brought a roll of duct tape and a sheet of plastic. When the need arose, I created a top with the plastic. Problem is I used the duct tape to secure it to the body. Yeah, you know what's left when you remove duct tape. The sticky remains do not come off easily. Several people made suggestions on what to use. The lacquer thinner suggestion was scary! So I had a bottle of Surf City Garage Road Trip with me for the road grime I expected to deal with. I tried this on the duct tape adhesive and it worked! SCG Road Trip is a gel. Let it sit, rub it gently, and off comes the junk stuck on your car. Keep in ming it removes your wax also. So you'll have to wax again.
