Scum superglued door handles shut and poured on bodywork

[Hodgins]

As title really, asking on behalf of a mate whos going through a rough patch (lost their dad in an accident 2 weeks ago )

its a 14 plate fiesta ZS so hopefully it wont need paint
its gloss red if this makes a difference,

ive had a quick search, will it need wet and drying and then polished up?

i was going to suggest petrol?

but i really dont know what to suggest, just want some ideas to try help him out

got access to a rotary if needed

thanks

That will be a pita to remove i would have thought? Take it he has annoyed someone?

 

[Hodgins]

He just showed me it now, he managed to get most of it off with AG paint restorer or something, but its damaged the rubber seals around the handle but thats easy enough to sort

it isnt as bad as i thought tbf but still annoying,

they did his neighbours cars so i sont think it was directed at him

It will need sanding and polishing, no product will safely remove it.

sorry to hear too.

Got any pics?

 

[imprezaworks]

Ah okay. Hope he sorts it, crap luck after what happened.
Some people are just utterl retarded. Why would anyone want to do this to someone, bizare.

 

[Hodgins]

Cheers guys,

i posted the thread before i saw the car when he rang me, sounded a write off on the phone as he was describing it lol , didnt get any pics as it cant really be seen as much now, just paint feels really rough to the touch

 

[Knuckles]

Are there any detailers/hobbyists local who could sort it for you?

Potato head is in Bristol (not sure how close you are) and would do a decent job on removing it.

Tardis should do a pretty good job with glue. That stuff gets everything off

Not super glue it won't.

Worth a try

No idea what it would do to the paint (I'm assuming it will eat that too) but whenever I get superglue on my hands I get it off with nail varnish remover. If it's plastic that it's on you'll need acetone free.

Like I said I have no idea what it would do to the paint as I've never tried it. Someone hopefully might know.

I don't see the harm in using nail varnish remover, seeing as you'll be sanding anyway.

Might even be worth trying to shave it off with a razor blade. Pics?
