Screen

[levante]

Hi,

Just passed my mod 2 and decided to take my L plates off.Trouble is who ever put them on glued an L plate to the screen with what looks to be superglue.I now have five white pieces glued to the screen,does anyone know of anyway of getting it off.

Cheers

Hair drier on hot will do it

If its super glue I suspect a new screen will be in order

Sounds like self adhesive L plates or double sided adhesive patches that have been left on to long, same thing happens with masking tape,,

A heat gun might work, but be careful with liquids, some might craze or melt your screen. try sticking a pick of duck tape over the area & rub it down hard,,

warm the back side of the screen, then pull the duck tape off, see if the tape has removed any of the old adhesive, it might take a few goes

remember, excessive heating of acrylic screens could cause it to warp,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, good luck

rub down, then spray paint. only option if super glue as it would have melted the plastic on contact.
