    Default Honda Glue

    I was helping my friend clear his 4th gen Prelude taillights by putting them into the oven and prying the lenses apart. But when i put back together the taillights, some of the melted glue got on the outer surface. How do i get rid of the glue?

    EDIT!
    thanks for the advice guys. Rubbing alcohol did the job.

    Picture before customizing:

    After:


    Got the instructions from: http://www.92lude.com/tailight_conversion.htm
    Note to anyone who tries this: It is very hard to do . . .
