Has anybody got a quick and easy way to remove a tail/traction pad without damaging the board?

Thanks

Eucalyptus oil, paint scrapper and a hair dryer will get you started.

be carefull not to use a hairdryer its epoxy

Sorry to revisit this thread giuys but I've just bought a 2nd hand Bourton Fat Bullet with a tail pad that was a mess. I've got the pad of with no issues and most of the glue has come up with it, but there are still a few areas that won't budge.

I've been recommended to use a number of things but just want to be certain as I don't want to ruin the deck before I even get to ride it.

So along with a bit of elbow grease what else can I use to get the glue of? WD40, Wax Remover, Petrol, Eucalyptus oil?

Thanks in advance

Glad you got it. I recon you'll love it. We need picks now
Citrus Orange wax and grease remover. I promise, just let it soak on glue and it will come off super easy..

Wax and grease remover, get it from repco.

Thanks WA71 and JB. I'll get some wax and grease remover this afternoon. Would I then just use and old wax scraper to get it off?

And thank again for all the advice JB. I'll let you know how I go once I've cleaned it up

^^ It will get soft with wax and grease remover so just a dry clean rag should do the trick.
