Alloy wheel/tyre balance wieght adhesive removal

[efiste2]

The bloody tyre fitters have left the black adhesive patches from the old balance wieghts on my alloy wheels when they fitted new tyres on my focus, whats the best stuff to use to get this off succesfully, i have tried wonder wheels and allsorts in the past , but it takes ages to shift, and even then leaves a visible patch

lighter fluid is pretty good for getting sticky stuff off

Yep, and a spot of petrol works well too just be careful!

Try spraying furniture polish on it and leave it to soak for a while then scrub off with a non abrasive scourer. Repeat as necessary.
