So I prepping my Tron shroud for new artwork by removing the old artwork. After removing it I was left with old adhesive covering the plastic shroud. So I took out my old reliable "Oops!" and started working on the adhesive. It worked well, but the can was soon empty.
Going to the store, I see that it no longer comes in can form, but spray. I figured I'd give it a shot.
However, seems the spray can stuff just isn't as strong as "concentrate" or whatever. Giving up on that I decide to try Goof Off. I have it in both "concentrate" and spray, so I grab the spray can and spray it on. Seems to do fairly well at removing the adhesive, and the shroud is nice and smooth. Then I notice some overspray that appears to be whitening the plastic.
Then I noticed the whole section I had just been working on was turning white.
So, yeah, luckily most of this will be covered up with artwork, but I got some overspray on the top and bottom areas as well. My first thought was maybe getting some plastic fusion spraypaint to repaint some areas, but if anyone has a spare Tron shroud laying around...
