I stopped by the Home Depot today to get something to remove the leftover adhesive from some stickers that I peeled of.  I also wanted to clean up the GPS mount that had some double sided tape stuck to it.  For years, I have been using a product called "Lift Off" Which works great. It is a very mild formula and has never damaged any surface that I used it on.

Well tonight I used a new product called "Goof Off" and it really screwed up the plastic.  It sure took the adhesive off with no problem.  But when I added a second application to really clean it up nice... it started to eat away at the plastic.  So I washed that crap off asap and tried to salvage what I could from the mount.

I thought that I'd try attaching the GPS with Velco this time since I seem to be moving it around a lot lately.  I got it all in place and must say that I don't like it.  After having it firmly glued in place on my roll cage for so many years, it just bugs me watching it bobble around on the dash.  One day I hope to install a Poison Spyder roll cage.  That will allow me to reattach the GPS the way it was before and give me a nice firm placement.

The Goof Off did a great job on the thick adhesive that I had on the front fender.  It took that crap right off. So now the body looks a little cleaner.  The fumes were a little intense in the garage tonight.  I had to call it quits before I killed too many more brain cells.
