I did say Nail Varnish Remover. This should desolve the glue on the sticky pads.

Nail Varnish remover is Acetone and very aggressive/volatile solvent and will damage plastic,gel coats
on caravans Much better to use white spirit to soften the glue on the pads, white spirit is more oily and no where near as aggressive. I use both of these and many more of these solvents on daily basis.

Thanks for all your suggestions.

I forgot to change the reg plate at the weekend again, and I only remembered after we had set off down the coast.

Fortunately I had the new plate in the back of the car.

Once at our destination I thought I would use dental floss to get it off, but due to the heat at the weekend - in the west coast of Scotland the temp was up at 33'C - the old plate just came off without much effort so I managed to change it easily in the end.

And they say it always rains on the west coast!
