Adhesive remover for wheel weight goo
Can you recommend a solid product to get the goo off without paint damage to the wheel? I had my A/S and summers swapped out and of course there was a weight change on one wheel the they left the adhesive backing from the old weights. I wouldn't presume that basic Goo-Gone is going to get the job done here.
Edit: WD-40, perhaps? |

Next, I go to Turtle Wax Label & Sticker Remover. It's a little stronger and gets almost everything off. Then Stoner Tarminator Tar and Sap Remover. Much stronger, use gloves. Again plastic scraper tool. One of those will get it off.

CarPro Tar-X works great with any adhesive based products, or get a rubber wheel and it won't tear up the paint

I found some similar to goo-gone orange product and as it turn's out it worked pretty well with not much elbow grease and a rag. soak, let it sit, rub, worked OK for what I needed.

I have a Malco account and use several of their products, but that product has a big warning on it for causing cancer so be careful with that one!

ah yes Cosmoline...you guys familiar with that product? I can still smell it...from being a prior collector of surplus firearms from Eastern Europe, cosmoline is just plain nasty to clean out of a rifle. Used as a storage preservative/protectant.

Not too familiar, but have been using it here and there since going to the NAPA dealer that carried the product line to find something that WILL work on the residue after removing the sun visor warming decals. Kirk is much more in tune, I'm not a detailer or anything close. But I did just use it for the very purpose of the wheel weight goo
