But now that its all gone, I can proceed to the next step of using the alcohol to remove the wax and finally mounting the carbon fiber spoiler! :roundel:
Consider yourself lucky... One time, while debadging one of my previous cars, the double-sided tape was so stubborn I actually blistered my thumb rubbing it off and it got infected - that was very uncomfortable.

Pics ASAP! :smile:
