Tom Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Whilst refitting my gear gaitor there was a slight excess of glue around the gear surround on the leather, I'm wondering what would be the best way to remove this?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Depends what type of glue it is. Any of these might work: Lighter fluid, White Spirit, Celulose thinner, Meths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted February 6, 2006 Author Share Posted February 6, 2006 I had thought about the white spirit, but I'm unsure if this would change to colour of the leather? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 I just removed stubborn chewing gum remains using WD40, suprised how well it worked. I wouldn't use nail varnish remover as it's acetone and may damage or remove the colour. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted February 7, 2006 Author Share Posted February 7, 2006 Cool, thanks for all your ideas! may just have to look for this tar and glue remover! WD sounds promising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
