    Spoiler adhesive remover

    I have removed the spoiler from my car as it was coming off due to poor application by a previous owner. As a result it has left a fair bit of solid residue on the boot lid. Any recommendations for how best to remove it? Thanks.

    Rubber adhesive, boot seal?

    Can anyone suggest a good sealant type adhesive to fit a new boot seal with on my W126 please? Obviously not bathroom type silicone as that rusts metal. I'm getting exhaust fumes in the car and this is something i thought worth doing anyway as it also leaks slightly.
