Mender Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 Hey guys. Haven't been on here for a while! Just asking around for some advice/help. How do I get rid of a scuff mark from sticker that was on my pickguard.. The pickguard is black too.. ugh.. Any ideas? Is it a scuff or a glue mark? If it's glue, pure lemon juice should dissolve it. If it is actually a scuff, Brasso or similar should help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihocky2 Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 If it's glue you can also use mineral spirits, naptha, lighter fluid, rubbing alcohol. I would stay away from more aggresive solvents like acetone (or nail polish), lacquer thinner, MEK, Xylene. I've used Goo Gone before, but I don't know whats in it so I would check first to make sure there is nothing that will harm the plastic.

~davie Posted April 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 Thanks guys. So far I've tried lime juice (no lemon juice in the house). And I also tried vinegar. Both of them seem to take off some of it, but there's still some weird scuffs and residue. Maybe I should consider polishing and buffing it out?

~davie Posted April 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 Okay, I just tried rubbing alcohol. It helped much better than the other stuff I tried, but there's still some residue leftover. I'll give it a few more tries. I'm thinking the pickguard scratches may be accentuating the scuffy parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
