    Come see the Protege FAQ


    No, I don't own an MP5.
    No, I don't drive a Protege 5.

    What happens when you send me PMs such as:
    -Sending me a stupid question (no common sense, no logic, impractical, etc)
    -Sending me a question that can be found searching or in the FAQ
    -Sending me an illegible question (ie: bad grammar)
    No you WON'T get flamed, you'll get ignored. The results will vary if you send flames/insults

      maybe some diluted simple green?

      For the stickers they sell this stuff called *I think* "oops" that **** works really well and you get to roast a few brain cells at the same time. Any "goo" remover should work.

          Simple Green is the ****! lol - it's a concentrated degreaser/cleaner. Wal-Mart should carry both of those.

              Simple Green takes off everything... make sure you rinse it off as soon as you're done!!!

                Simple green ****s up a lot of stuff too, just wash your car with dawn.

                        i made up a mix of **** last night.... including...:

                        Castrol super clean
                        ERA laundry detergent
                        OXI-clean
                        dawn dish soap
                        another dish soap
                        wheel cleaner
                        a small amount of water

                        wipe that on the marks... poof gone... youd never know they were there.
                        a plus is its safe for painted surfaces.

                          my next problem is wondering what takes off the sticker residue from paint without killing the paint too much... i've still got good paint on my car... should i still use goo gone for that?

                            yeah, it should work just fine. The goo-gone is probly more safe for painted surfaces than the opps ****. I can't remember for sure. Just read the label before you buy it.
