How to remove contact cement stain?

Prepsol? We used to use paint thinners...prob not the best option!

CRC will soften it...so will a heatgun/hairdryer (not at same time...OK?!). Find a small patch to test on first.

Any solvent that will dissolve it wil probably attack the paint.
There is a product called GlueRid that is specifically for contact cements - it is basically Toluene.

hairdryer - maybe. Heat gun - no!! Epoxy softens considerably at about 80deg and a heat gun will get it to that temp really damn fast

May be easier to lightly spray paint it if it is just white.

FYI if anyone is gluing pads on....... there is now Kwik Grip Advanced which sets clear not yellow, plus it is stronger, and even better it is water based so you can spread it on with your fingers and just wash your hands. It goes on like wood work glue (like aquadhere etc)
No more stringy yellow sh!t hanging off popsticks as you spread it, and trying so hard not to get it anywhere else on the board. As we know gluing pads on is always a nightmare and you still get yellow crap somewhere ..... I just used the new product recently and it was a dream.

Thanks buddy (sarcasm), I just glued on a home-made nose pad to my Cross last night with the gunky yellow ****e! After the last surf episode on the Kona I need as much protection as possible. A bit too chunky at 20mm all up (dual density EVA). But I'd like to see a mast ding this nose, the dual density should cushion the blow nicely. Knowing me it's going to miss the pad and wack the rail instead!




Stains, no I didn't do it when I glued the nose pad, are around 20¢ piece size each. It's a an eye sore. I did try the WD40 and nail brush with no luck. I'll try turps as T11 suggested. If all else fails I'll light spray it white.

Thanks Windxtasy, but don't look too closely! Electric sanders and a Dremel tool just love to grip the foam and go berserk, especially when you have two density foams stuck together.

I have got to disagree 100%. I used this to stick the pads back on my thommen after some footstrap insert surgery, and it was a pain. It will only set if both sides are completely dry. Unlike normal contact cement, this stuff doesn't seem to just grip, and is more like a paste, or as Mark has said, aquadhere.

It will only go clear when absolutely dry, and this means that you can have white fluid come out of your pads for a little while.

Maybe I didn't let it set enough before I used it, but I wasn't happy with it at the time.

I might give it another try with some scraps and see how it goes, but it is definitely different in the way you need to apply it compared to regular contact cement.
