GM Parts Label
1 Attachment(s)
I thought I remember seeing a thread on this subject, but I can't find it. I am putting together my NOS glove box liner and it just so happens the GM parts label is on the inside of the box. Does anyone know of a product that would remove this label without damaging the glove box liner.

Steam may be the best option here but that's just a guess.

I have Used a 1000 watt hair dryer for this purpose
Careful & slow. Goal is to get the glue to soften and you might still have a ghost of residue but it should work. |
I’m trying to think what the sign shop used, I think it was xylol, you would just put it on the label, I’ll bet the glue will leave a mark.
Lighter fluid may work, put just on the label, |

I Picked up a decal scraper, plastic blade, it may help getting it started. You can scrape a decal off of something plastic, but it may harm the cardboard.

The NOS glove box liner will not stand up to any type of scraper. I am going to try to soften up the label to remove it and then deal with the glue residue.
|
If you get the sticker removed,I wouldn't recommend using anything oil based to try to remove the residue,(if there is any),as it will soak in & stain that exact spot on the soft cardboard and then be darker.
Rubbing Alcohol on a Q-tip is all I would try to see if it removes the residue,if not leave it be. |
The label is at the top of liner correct?
I would leave it alone and let it fall off naturally the remove the glue residue with isopropyl alcohol gently. |
I wish the label was on the outside of the box or else I would leave it alone. The label is on the inside of the glove box liner.

Try the xylol

This label was stuck good on cardboard, lighter fluid and the scraper I suggested Worked great
Lighter fluid is still evaporating. |

Does anyone have pictures of an original or NOS 1969 glove box liner that you can post. Thank you.

Mike, what do you want to know?

Kevin, I have a NOS glove box liner that I have to staple, If I follow the way my original liner is stapled the NOS liner has the metal retainers that the screws go through faced in the wrong direction. If I fold the liner the other way the rectangular hole that is stamped in the liner is on the wrong side.
