    Removing dried glue from a old trigger frame

    I recently picked up a ANS quick fire frame online, the only issues I see with it is pitting and what seems to be glue stuck to the frame. Any idea what could take off the glue without causing any damage to the finish? (I'll post pictures once I'm out of work)

    Depending on the glue.... Alcohol or something like that

      As Ecapnation mentionned, start with 70-90% isopropylic alcool, if it does not work try nail polish remover

      Sometime you can try rubing oil on it then use dawn dish soap with water (some glue are not water soluble but mix well with oil, then soam get rid of oil/glue mixture)

        You can also use heat, glues and aluminum typically expand at different rates and amounts so if it is a hard crusty glue I've had luck with using heat cycles and a nylon pan scrapper. If it is sticky then my go to is Goo Begone.

          Goo gone. Or alcohol.

            Seemed to work pretty well! There's a little left behind, but it's getting covered by grips anyway. Honestly the first slider I'm going to use

              I used a generic 70% isopropyl rubbing alcohol, only one I tried, work well enough for what I needed

              Looks like they had wrap around dye stickies on it. They turn to goo over time.
