You need to use some elbow grease, but Magic Eraser will get it off. you just gotta work those arm muscles. |
| Mick Dundee:
I would NOT use alcohol on the plastic. It could discolor it. Goo Gone is more of an oil. I would/do use Goo Gone |
| destindude04u:
goof off you can find at home depot or lowes for under 5 dollars and it works every time just dont spray it directly on the cart, spray on a paper towel and it works every time... |

It will remove plastic and thus some of the original texture. --- Quote from: Mick Dundee on March 31, 2013, 10:57:38 AM ---I would NOT use alcohol on the plastic. It could discolor it.

Hell, I soak cart shells in 50/50% distilled water/iso solution over a 24 hour period to remove the labels for the really expensive practically radical omnivorous carts that I make ;) REALLY long exposure of a high concentration will eventually discolor it, but like Windexwhic contains Ammonium Hydroxide (not very plastic friendly at all), the concentration and length of exposure isn't enough to do any real harm. I've used Windex and Iso to clean carts for decades and have never seen any ill effects. --- Quote from: destindude04u on March 31, 2013, 11:00:24 AM ---goof off you can find at home depot or lowes for under 5 dollars and it works every time just dont spray it directly on the cart, spray on a paper towel and it works every time... --- End quote --- Don't EVER use Goof Off on plastics! Goo-Gone is orange oil based, Goof-Off is Xylene based. That shit EATS ABS like Kanye West puts his foot in his mouth. |

if you use just a little bit not too much its okay but I would follow it up with some kind of oil treatment after you get the marks off tho |
