goto ur micro wave..
heat up penut butter (smooth not chrunchy)
put it on let sit for few seconds. and its comes right off.

i used this trick on the side mudegards of a prelude. works great.

Oh yeah? You ever smelled melted hot peanut butter??

I'd bet it would make you hungry.

MAKE SURE IS IS ACETONE FREE>>>>>>

and it works easy and perfect, and its safe
