Day 9 - Installed RW Carbon - Perf Style Vacuum Carbon Fiber Trunk Spoiler
To remove the spoiler, use fishing lines (floss breaks too easily) and a microfiber cloth. Hold both each end of the fishing line, make a sawing motion starting from the edge (pull lines away from the edge). Once you're in about 6inch through, slide a micro fiber cloth under edge that you just gone through to prop the spoiler. Keep working the fishing lines through the rest of the spoiler. The micro fiber cloth should maintain a 4-8inch distance from the section you're working through with the fishing lines.
Once the spoiler is off, you'll have a mess of double sided tape to clean off. Spray the 3M adhesive removal generously and let it soak for 30 sec. I use a razor blade to carefully remove the adhesive. (it's ok if you scratch the areas the spoiler is going on) Keep repeating until the thick layer of glue is off the trunk. Once the hard work is done (about 1.5hr). Spray a final layer of adhesive removal, let it soak for 30sec, then use a microfiber to buff it until it's squeaky clean as shown.
Next, clean both the spoiler and trunk surface with rubbing alcohol. Line up the spoiler, mark with masking tapes, then apply Betalink adhesive as instructed.
