Can anyone recommend where to buy Goo Gone or an equivalent (name please). Also is shellite ok for mylar glue residue removal from playfields? If how do you use it ie. rub it on or paint it on and leave it for awhile etc etc.

Ive never doen a diamond Plate Playfield but i either use Shelite or zippo fluid (same thing)
-
Shellite from bunnings.
I it is really nasty - Try Goof Off. I've used it before with great results on STUBBORN residue. Use in a test area first.

goo gone seems to be gone

Thanks Nino, I've got plenty of shellite, but I seem to remember hearing not to use goof off as this is mistaken for goo gone.....have you used G-off on diamond plate before? If so how?

Hi
Looked everywhere for Goo Gone up here in QLD with no luck. That Shellite is nasty stuff, I was using it in the garage with roller door up but the fumes went right through the house.
Cheers

Not on a diamond plate - just EMs and SS.

you're right about the smell but I'll do it outside. I just need to know if it'll cause any problems on the playfield artwork etc I used it on the cab to get rid of the glue and it worked fantastically.

Rob - Try "Orange Solvent" - The smell is pleasant and it might be a good option for you.

Bring on the old jokes... "why did they sell this? How often do you find yourself needing to remove Big Kev's goo?" #(&
