Removing adhesive pad from windscreen

[T6ChrisO]

Hi guys,

On my Golf, there's a dashcam stuck to the windscreen next to the rear view mirror with what looks to be like an adhesive pad. I want to remove the dashcam as its not required but im a bit unsure on how to remove it. Any suggestions? Dental floss maybe??

Cheers all

Maybe give it a bit of heat with a hairdryer and then try to peel it off. Any residue should clean of with isoprop

this stuff works great to get rid of any residue! - Sticky Stuff Remover

Warmth and a good plastic spudger or try and get some IPA to soak in are my go to.

Dash cam pads tend to be like a thick sticky rubber so if you get it peeling you might find it can be persuaded off with a good pull and hold the tension.

I'm a big fan of Sticky Stuff Remover but, to me anyway, it smells horrible and I can't stand the greasy residue that it leaves behind. At least with Isopropyl / IPA the screen is left almost clean when you've finished and you can treat yourself to a quick swig to celebrate a job well done.

Acetone or Loctite SF 7200 gasket remover.
