Glue stains

Hello all.


Background.

Ive got a motorbike and recently some oinks decided to steal it. They didnt get far but before they dumped it they decided to pour glue on the seat and some of the trim.

Now it was left in the sun for over a month!

Just got it back and on the seat where the glue was left it now has white streaks and looks like birds doo doo all over it. Also on the black trim, it looks as if there is permanent mark on it.

Any ideas on how to remove it or colour in the seats?

Thanks all .

Regards,

Dangeroussports

    Try a fairly safe solvent to begin with. White spirits etc the one you use for paint brushes. That should make a start at the glue anyway. Try out a small patch first as a test.

    Just a suggestion probably a rubbish one at that!

    Keep it away from your hands and the paintwork on your bike!!!!!!

    Anyhow I hope the b'tards who stole your bike are dragged over some hot coals!!!
