Help,
Just got back from Spain and removed the convertors, but not the glue.
Have used, white spirit, petrol, nail polish remover and tar remover.
Anybody got any suggestions.
Thanks
Malc

I would be cautious about using solvent or abrasives on plastic headlights

A hairdryer usually softens the adhesive, and white spirit does the rest for me

Agree with pyro.
How long have you had them on?
They are only meant for tempory use and should not be left on for more than a few weeks. If left on too long the adeshive migrates into the plastic and then you have got a real problem.

When i got my vehicle it has some stick on converters.
Took them off which left the residue in the headlight.
Just left it where it was and it weathered off during the winter. Just needed a finger nail to remove the few bit that were left.
As has been said be v careful with solvents on the headlight unit.
