so i have the gt style spoiler and am in the process of crossing over to the CDC ducktail. i recently took the spoiler off and there is a heavy amount of goop left from the 3m DS tape. i tried goo gone but it wont seem to budge. do you guys think the body shop could handle it?

Try WD-40 and a hairdryer to warm it up. Wd-40 will safely remove goo without hurting your paint.

Goo-Gone (trademark) is good to use and wont harm painted surfaces.
As is paste wax with petrolium distillates in it.

any ideas as to what to use for a rubbing material? i don't wanna ruin my thumb.

Best thing would be a microfiber rag...i use those for anything because they dont harm the paint. Or try like an old T shirt or something

I rolled it off with my thumb.

take your time and it will come off using goof off. try peanut butter(creamy)

Peanut Butter is slightly abrasive in nature.
Peanut oil is the same as peanut butter without
any of the unwanted scratch producing abrasives in it.
Try ready-whip creamy whipped topping.
Or some creamy unsalted butter.
Or just plain ol paste wax with petrolium distillates.

Just wrapped up doing this. I kid you not it took 4 hrs. This may be a special case. Two months ago someone keyed the drivers side and the shop had to remove the spoiler when they reshot the rear quarter. They laid down 2 1/2 strips along the outer edge, then four strips about 20" long in the middle. Never thought I'd get it off. I used wd40, Goo Gone and cleaner wax. I even tried a very tiny bit of Meg's #2, but that'll leave some fine stratches. Patience is the key, apply Goo Gone and let it sit at least ten minutes, then get you thumb on there. Good luck!

I used wd-40 and a razor it came right off.
