Didn't get time to polish it up, but completed a huge majority of the work of getting those little stubborn farkers off the car... takes pushing a flathead screwdriver behind 8 layers of folded cloth to get the right amount of pressure to get 'em off without scratching the paint... painful process and took a long time to get them off. There's still tons of tiny tiny ones that just won't come off unless they're scratched off, so they stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have hundreds on my car. Probably a few thousand. Mainly below the rubber strips and on the rear.
