Removing Sika? Any Tricks


Recommended Posts

If it's not a big lot to remove...

Presumably you have removed whatever was bogged down and cut away as much of the Sikaflex as you can with a Stanley knife, then if you have a gnarly old calloused thumb like mine you can pretty well remove the remaining residue by rubbing your thumb hard over the remaining sika. Anything left after that can be lifted by wiping with Grease and Wax remover. A Diggers product from Bunnings I think.

Sounds like you come from the same place as my old mate in wellington who insists you can do ANYTHING with an angle grinder

He's quite correct, you can, but only if you are not wearing safety glasses or gloves, and have removed the handle and taken the guard off of the spinning wheel of death first.

 

Safety stubbies are optional
