Bathroom Prep for my '72 Sovereign

[mello mike]

Soon I'll be painting my bathroom fixtures with the 2-part epoxy paint. Unfortunately, there are several adhesive floral thingies on my bathtub bottom. How do you get these things off without damaging the surface?

Mike, what is your tub made of? Fiberglass or plastic?
Either way, you should be able to use Easy-Off, or Goo-Gone, or even brake fluid to help soften the glue holding the little "Flower Power" antislip stickers on the tub. Just don't use any petroleum based solvents stronger than mineral spirits to get them off, as it may soften the tub itself.

Thanks Terry. I'll try goo gone. I've got some of that left from a previous job.
