So I finally addressed hideous looking aged fender flare oem protective film / strip.
Items used / needed:
- Bottle of T. wax label and sticker remover
-Blow dryer (attachment in pic not recommended)
-Thin guitar pic (if you happen to have) or "plastic razor blade"

Equally using Remover and blow dryer is critical for effective results....
Final step - scrubbed down area with semi abrasive plastic bristle brush and water........
