Title: Bonnet Wrap gone wrong...
Post by: carljackson on March 14, 2014, 05:32:01 pm: So I got watching some vids today and had a go at wrapping my bonnet and it came out with load of bubbles so I decided to remove it and now I have glue all over the bonnet that I can take off, anyone know what i can use to take that glue off without causing any more damage to the paint work :booty:

The bonnets f*cked at the moment, it has glue all over it I want to take it of asap because dust is going to start sticking help help help!!!!!!!!
