Vinyl Graphics Removal Fluid?

[tomence]

Does anyone know what kind of fluid this guys are using to remove the vinyl graphic from the trailer. Here is a youtube link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Wc3u2DdMAU&feature=channel

I don't know, but I want some.

Hmm, I've seen the same results using aircraft stripper - but no way you can touch it with your bare hands...

Would love to know too!

They haven't answered because they have all died of unknown causes.


Sources say horrible music taste has not been ruled out as a cause.

 

[tomence]

As you can see in the video they are working with their bare hands no gloves nothing. It says in the title "Our secret solution" which looks to be very good. Using their product probably will take you one to two hours to do the whole trailer. Otherwise it will take days.

Wow! This IS what aircraft cleaner does to paint but...

hey this would be great for repos!

 

[ChicagoGraphics]

Xylol will do the same thing and you can work with bare hands, unless you have sensitive skin.

 

[Mike Paul]

That's a **** load of adhesive that needs to be power washed away at the end, I'm guessing heated.

What material were they removing?

 

[CheapVehicleWrap]

That's not really biodegradable though.
Should avoid dripping on nuts too no matter how insensitive you are.

Nope. That stuff pretty much sucks. Complete waste of money. At least in my opinion.

Really? To each his own I guess.

I swear by it. I have had full wraps that only came off in small flakes at at time. Nothing worked except for Vinyl Off. Spray it on, let it penetrate then I could pull it off in sheets.

Vinyl off worked for me but nothing like what they are showing in the first video.
Used the vinyl off along with a steamer on some Scotchprint graphics that had been installed in 05.

I had exactly the opposite experience. I bought a gallon to try. Used it on 5 or 6 different jobs with vinyl of varying age and found it pretty much useless. A blowtorch on it's own did a better job.

Maybe it bakes on worse out here?

 

[MR. Graphics]

i concur with raged. i still have 9/10 of gallon left. after buying it 2 years ago.

 

[tomence]

Nothing compares to what this guys are using. I have used every solution thats out there and nothing works like what has been shown in this video.

 

[Sticky Signs]

What ever those guys are using looks pretty sweet.
As for Vinyl-off - I tried a bottle a couple years ago. It worked ok but it makes the vinyl pretty slick and hard to grasp. I also had a bad experience with after market paint so I haven't touched it since.

tomence,
According to Google Maps you are only 10 miles away from them. They are in Lemont, IL. Go check them out and give us a report.

I found out awhile ago that one my friends who is a trailer repair shop that knows the owner of this company and that he used him before to clean up some trailers for him and i asked him if he can find out what kind of solution they use. I mean in the video it says our secret solution so i dont know how easy it is going to be to find out what they use.
