Goo Gone Automotive - Cleans Auto Interiors/ Bodies and Rims, Removes Bugs & Stickers - 12 Fl. Oz.

I'm going to give this a 50/50 so far. It's a gel substance which has some kind of oil as a mixture, but it sprayed out fine. The goo I'm trying to remove is a sticky residue from a vinyl wrap which I had removed with a heat gun months prior. The quickest method was with a toothbrush and a regular scrubber sponge. Results are mixed. The goo sort of came off in patches and in others sort of hazed over but didn't remove anything. So I have to do the glass again (rear window/back rear passenger windows) because the glue residue is still there. I think the key is spraying the glass and then hitting it with the scrubber a bit then letting it sit (easier said than done in Florida heat) and then go at it again with scrubber. I thought it would go faster but for me that wasn't the case. I'm giving 3 stars because the substance is mildly difficult to remove. It's a whole production to remove. As opposed to taking it into a shop to get it done, I'd rather do it myself, but the results vary. Especially for me that thought this was a quick thing. Bottle size is a bit smaller than a typical spray bottle, but it's so oily it can last. Value is only determined by results and my results are meh. It could be my method that didn't work so I'll give it another shot and then I'll update review. Maybe, maybe not since that's just what you'll all be expecting me to do... All seriousness, 50/50 on recommendation. ** Update 4/24/26 Ok, I had said I'd update it and change rating, and so I did. The product works, my initial technique didn't. This isn't something you just spray on, rub around a little and then wash off. It has an oil base that will fog glass and metal. This is what worked for me: Spray onto glass (if it gets on metal doesn't do anything) then use a regular kitchen sponge with scrubber and scrub in circular motion. Leave it there. Just do circular motions for a little, covering the whole area you are working on. Then run side to side with scrubber and let it sit about 5 minutes while you rummage in your pockets for a lighter, because you know you have it but can never remember where you put it. Then get some paper towel and wad up a whole bunch in your hand, and wipe off the excess oil off whatever surface you are working with. Then: Get a bucket of hot water, throw in some good detergent, we use the one with the duckling on it, and a rag. Go at the area, soap it up good. Do the areas around it that could have gotten splashed by the goo oil. Get it there. Then when that's done, wash it off and if you want, hit it again with another wad of paper towel or rag. Bam. Crystal clear. The product is good, I was initially wrong. I'd recommend it. I used a bunch and the bottle is still full, so this size will last. I was also removing vinyl wrap residue and dirt that had gotten stuck to it. Baked on in Florida heat. This did the trick so I'm pretty sure sticker residue will come right off. Try it.

I used this to remove leftover adhesive residue from the exterior of my car after peeling off an old sticker. The spray gel was easy to apply and stayed where I sprayed it instead of running everywhere, which made it easier to work with. After letting it sit for a short time, the residue wiped away much more easily than I expected. I followed up with a clean microfiber cloth, and the surface looked clean without leaving a greasy film behind. The citrus scent was noticeable but not overwhelming. The bottle feels sturdy, the trigger sprayer worked well, and a little product went a long way for my small cleanup job. Based on my experience, it’s a handy product to keep around for removing sticky residue from a vehicle and feels well worth the price.

I’m so glad they finally put goo gone in a spray bottle! Great bang for buck, residue is easy to clean, excellent at removing stains, very effective!

Edit: To be fair to the product, I'm updating my review from a 1 to 4 stars. I found that putting the material on a rag and holding it closer to 10 minutes, then following it up with using an old credit card (combined with a lot of elbow grease) eventually helped me remove the old sticker adhesive. Worked a lot better than WD40, but took longer than the bottle instructions of a "few minutes" and wipe with a rag. I did closer to 10 minutes, a few times, and then used an old credit card. It did the trick. I had some residue on car bumper stickers I was trying to remove. This stuff did no better than WD40 which wasn't much. Feel ripped off. It smelled nice. But otherwise it did nothing. I sprayed and waited a few minutes. I tried putting some on a cloth and holding it on for 5 minutes. Nothing made a difference.

I accidentally got to close to the side of my garage while backing in my car, some paint transferred. I bought this and it literally took the paint off within seconds. You can even tell it was ever there.

Goo Gone Automotive worked better than expected. The rear bumper applique was peeling slightly and I decided to remove it. I removed the applique with a heat gun but it left a ton of sticky residue. I tired using other products that didn't work well at all. Goo Gone Automotive loosened all of the sticky residue within a few minutes for me to safely scrub off.

I got this to remove the sticky residue left behind from a car lip (spoiler) so I could remove the stock one and put a new one on. It worked good enough to remove the sticky left behind, which was very thick, so it took over an hour of multiple applications, waiting and scraping. However, it did not fully remove the line, I could still see where the previous tape was left in the end. I bought the automotive version specifically because I was using it on my car and I wanted to be sure to protect the paint - it left a new residue on my paint that would not wash off with car soap or even alcohol wipes. So warning, it leaves your paint foggy and cloudy! My husband ended using a commercial roofing-grade acetone to get the remaining lines and residue off of my paint. So while it works, beware of residue!

Excellent product! Worked great in getting the tree sap off my car.

I never write reviews but this product is amazing. I had a lot of duct tape residue on my car (taped up from a little reversing accident) and I have to replace the tape often and it always leaves so much residue I can’t get off. I thought I would give this product a go and didn’t have high hopes because it was a lot of residue. It worked INSTANTLY to get off the tough residue. Highly recommend!

This stuff works great on the vehicle paint to get the junk off that it is supposed to. The price is a little steep, but it works. My application was to remove someones old work sticker on the doors and rear fenders of my "new" truck. The colour of the automotive Goo Gone is lighter than that of the regular Goo Gone - just so you don't get them mixed up. Regardless, this stuff works, and I only used ⅓ of the bottle.👍🏻 Just be sure after you use it, that you wash your vehicle well where it was applied. A coat of wax would be an added benefit too after the vehicle is washed.

Over rated capability.. had difficulty removing stubborn stains off car body paint. Not useful

A sticker l bought from china made my car disgusting. This solution worked very well although had to apply menu times to complete the cleaning

Overview My last use was on a matt finished motorcycle tank. Matt paint can be a challenge for some solvents and polishes. This work great to remove the residual glue one I remove the stickers. I prefer it over WD40 just because WD40 gets all over everything (really hard to control the aerosol spray) I removed 2 stickers from the gas tank and a large sticker from the chain guard in about 5 minutes. Tip: To get the stickers off with no harm to the paint, I boiled a kettle of water and slowly poured it over the stickers. Then I was able to get a corner up and peel them off in one piece (they were plasticized) Apply the Goo Gone and immediately spread it around with your finger to control drips. Wait 3 or 4 minutes and use a lint free cloth to clean off the glue. Rinse with a bit of water to remove any residual Goo Gone. Pros • Works great • No paint damage (including the matt finish on my current bike) • No strong odour Cons • Not really a con, but a little dab will do. I will lose the bottle long before I make a dent in it. They should consider selling it in smaller single use containers (like takeout condiments  ) Recommendation – Would buy it again and would highly recommend. <---Click below if you found this review helpful--->
