What works the best:
- A standard micro fiber rag works
- Having a hose with a constant flow of water assisting removal.
- WD40 definitely does something to the plasti-dip to make it fall apart. Just be careful what you use it on. Worked fine on my wheels.
- Once it is up, you may or may not have a mess of plasti-dip particles, Stainless Metal Polish works MAGIC, it just wipes this stuff away perfectly.

What didn't work:
- Any household cleaning product, needs heavy duty car spec cleaning products.
- Anything but a standard micro fiber rag worked terribly. A micro fiber fluffy thing failed miserably, paper towels, etc etc, they all suck.

Recommendations:
- Use a hose and your hands. The water really hardens up the plastic and it makes for removing bigger pieces much easier, also it cleans up the area much better and you will have virtually no mess in the end. For those places that the hose and yours hands can't do so well, just use the microfiber rag and maybe MAYBE some WD40, but you'll have to clean up in the end with the Stainless Metal Polish.
Do you think the WD40 would penetrate the clear coat and enamel enough to have an effect on the Plastidip?
