Review on πŸ”§ Optimized Stripe Wheel 07499: Diameter and Width by Christopher Bacho

Revainrating 5 out of 5

3 meter eraser! suitable for finishing materials

This is the secret to removing decals, stickers, thin strips or adhesive residue from painted automotive surfaces. It's literally a giant eraser. I discovered this product while working in an auto repair shop during college. I've shared it with many friends over the years and it's time to add my 2 cents here. If your vehicle has an old branding decal or lettering, you will need this to remove it. It will not cut/chip paint like a razor blade. You don't risk burning the paint like you would with a heat gun. If you still have double-sided tape from the door panel - a 3M eraser. If you don't want that dealer sticker on your car, get behind the wheel. I've had the best luck with this product when using a slow rotation speed and heavy pressure. It's tough on the drill you're using β€” I have a special, high-quality corded drill used only for wheels β€” and it's a bit of a hand exercise. This product costs more than I would like. But I suspect 3m may charge a fee for a product that works. What the 3m eraser leaves behind can be easily removed with a rag and the appropriate solvent.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Doubtful
