I'v got to remove vinyl wrap from my new car (whole car). Does anybody know if i need anything other than a heat gun as i think it'l probably leave glue on the car.
Cheers chris

Heat gun and tar remover and a hell of a lot of hard work especially if its a cheap vinyl used mate.

ahhh shit going to be a tiring weekend. It was our company car wraped on the cheap a few years back so its probally going to be really bad. Will any old tar and glue remover do or more expensive the better?

Cant say mate.
Personally if I was you I would invest in a 5ltr tin of pre paint/ spirit wipe but if you use this you will need to re seal the paint after as it will take everything from the surface and leave the paint bare with no protection at all.

I used to have to do this at work, best thing if you can get a hold of one is a hot pressure washer but will still need tar and glue remover as some glue will be left
