Bill-V8V Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Yup Here is a different version, I'm not exactly sure what the differences are but it was talked about in another thread recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkman2008 Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 I was unaware of two different versions. I have only seen this offered for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill-V8V Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Goo Gone isn't dangerous. I use it all the time, directly on the paint. I even allow it to sit for 15-20 minutes because it takes a while on stuff like weather stripping. Just remember there are two different versions, look for the Goo Gone with the car on the label I've used the regular stuff on cars without issue but I remember someone recently said they saw it damage clear coat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chicklet Posted March 26, 2011 Author Share Posted March 26, 2011 I still have the MINI. Bought a 2011 G37S 6MT sedan. Spent 7 hours on it. Sorry pics are taken with my dinosaur camera. Hubby had the good one in his truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkman2008 Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 I used the 3M adhesive remover (Auto Body safe) with an adams MF applicator... Works the bees knees and is MUCH faster than Goo Gone. Goo Gone isn't dangerous. I use it all the time, directly on the paint. I even allow it to sit for 15-20 minutes because it takes a while on stuff like weather stripping. You bringing that puppy to the Atlanta clinic Britt? You never said what it is. Did you get another Mini Cooper? Check it for scratches before I see it!
