I have a problem that I am sure many of you can help me with. One of my hands applied vinyl to a trailer using water and left the masking on while it dried. He forgot to go back and take the masking off, so 2 months later, when we find out, we have a mess. Question is, What is the best way to get the dried and baked residue off the trailer from the masking. Thanks for your help.

Larry, Do you mean the transfer tape masking or regular masking tape residue? If it is masking tape, I use Goo Gone and a L'il Chizler (or one of those plastic razor blades from an auto parts store) Work a small section at a time...apply to Goo Gone, let it soak in (it drips everywhere) then work at it with the Chizler. Ain't as much fun as watching old Bonanza re-runs, but it's almost as boring. You might also want to try that sray adhesive and decal remover from Advanced Auto Parts, comes in a little black can with a purplish label. It is more aggressive than goo gone but works real well. Try to avoid the area with the graphics tho! Finish up with Windex and soft old cloths like T-Shirts. Love....Jill
