White sticky, gooey, stuff ruining my clothing!

[GERMS]

...and it's not what you're thinking you dirty person!

 

White slimy stuff behind door panels, what is it and how the hell can I get rid of it???

 

I've tried adhesive remover and doesn't do it.

 

The stuff just got on one of my favorite jackets and I've about had it! haha (if you know how to get it off clothing please let me know, I'd really appreciate it.)

 

Thanks =P

Pretty sure you are talking about the tacky putty that holds the plastic weather seal behind the door panel.

Every time I've pulled a datto door panel it was dry and crusty and I rubbed it off the door.

Try gasoline and a rag.

White lithium grease? Is it from the window regulator?

Put on the rest of your favorite clothes and walk near the door. The rest of the putty will spread all over you clothes from the door.

 

Burn the clothes.

 

Enjoy your putty free doors.

His logic is flawless

Dat Lurka that's exactly where it's at, but mine is unbelievably fresh, not one section is dry, and its all the way around the door.

 

RedEye I don't usually have favorite clothing...as a matter of fact I haven't shopped for clothing in years haha which is why it bugs me more now that I recently bought a nice $60 jacket for work (have never bought a piece of clothing that expensive haha) and now there's white shit on it that smells like burnt beans and it's impossible to wipe off, if I do it'll sink in even more haha... shit =(.

Did you try Gasoline yet?

[MicroMachinery]

Try "Awesome".

[ggzilla]

Isn't it mastic? How'd you get it all over your clothes? The adhesive on my doors is still sticky, not flakey, can peel off mostly in one piece and use 3m caulking to replace it.

Dat Lurka, no I haven't, I was in school and I couldn't stand the professor's boring lecture, I think ratsun was a good way to not fall asleep haha Will try, thanks.

 

Micro, if gasoline doesn't work, Awesome is the next thing in line, I'll let you know if it truely is awesome

 

ggzilla, I took my door panels off, which are in great shape, to keep them from ripping while I restored the interior (changed seats to buckets) planning on painting them from beige to black. So I've always been exposed to that filthy white stuff.

 

Now it seems I have another problem, I might have almost ran over (God forgive me if I did) a skunk and I belive he landed a squirt on my left side...the smell, although fading, is still there...had some girls passing by the street while I was parked wonder where the skunk was...I shrugged and told them that wasn't my car haha jk

[Dat Lurka]

wash it :rofl:

 

My dog get's hit every once in a while. People always recommend to use something acidic to break down the enzymes or whatever but I just use some Aussie shampoo on her and it takes most of it away and the little bit of smell fades over a few days.

 

But unless your car is covered in thick fur it should just spray off.
