RE: Windshield Rubber

[Mark Souders <souders@xxxx>]

The only thing I know of to safely remove the goop without damaging the
paint is lighter fluid. Acetone, lacquer thinner, and stripper will damage
the paint. I heard that a product called "Goof Off" is good to remove glue
but I never tried it so I can't vouch for its effectiveness.
