- rootusrootus 7y agoGoo Gone isn't all that strong, are you sure you're not thinking of Goof Off? Goo Gone is a fairly average citrus-based cleaner, where as Goof Off is based on acetone. It'll melt many paint and plastics on contact. Certainly has it's moments, though, and it's far stronger than Goo Gone.
- Causality1 7y agoIndeed I was, or rather I assumed they were both maker-specific names for the same thing. Thank you for the explanation.
- lttlrck 7y agoYeah that’s a good point. It’s pretty strong stuff. I’ve used it to remove decals from cars and it hasn’t damaged the clearcoat but modern clearcoat is an epoxy anyway so it’s not all that surprising. It will destroy polystyrene based plastics and I’d be careful around others. Having said that it works fine applied via a rag so you can avoid overspray issues.
