Default How to get sticky stuff off my door?

I recently stripped my interior, but when i took of the front door panals, i found all this stick stuff that held some plastic on. How do i get it off? Can it come off?

There is an aerosol can that when sprayed makes things cold.
I'm not sure of the name, but you might ask a hardware store clerk.
This should get the goo to harden enough that you could pop it off
with your fingers easily. If you have a friend with nitrous, that could work
too, but could be more expensive.
Goot luck!!

Yeah that aerosol can that when you spray it makes things cold, it comes in a big blue (sometimes crome) bottle, it's called NOS (haha)

Try a heat gun to cook the sticky stuff. It will harden and then you can chip it off. Good Luck.

man looks like you got a problem.... a sticky propblem. hit it with a heat gun. no hair dryer is gonna do it. all you need is a heat gun and a sharp edge. try that. good luck

pick as much of it off as you can, you will end up with frikkin sticky hands but you only do this once. give the remaining door residue a little time and when it darkens...it will be brittle and you can easily chip or scratch it right off and just do a good wipe with windex or something and it will look like it was never there.

Rubbing a little bit of gasoline on something sticky gets it off. At least it has worked for me. don't use too much...just a little, and it should dissolve the stuff.
