Wheel Weight Residue....Best method to remove

jeffvb9 · 09-09-2011, 08:52 AM

So I took my wheels off last week to clean them thoroughly. Lots of residue from old wheel weights. Used Goo Gone. Tried a razor blade but realized this was not the way to go and quickly stopped that. Still lots left that I cannot get off.

Look for a product like 3M General Adhesive Remover. Still takes a little time, but it should make it 10X faster.
