In my case it seems quite reusableexpected result, the tape is not reusable
Good thinking. If you are gonna try to freezing/heating it then definitely just the top plastic part without GPS board.It's really hard to peel off with nails even, all it does is gunk up. I'm wondering if freezing it will help. Or using hair dryer (but this stuff formulated for high heat??). Also the GPS mount has 4 screws. Maybe can remove so that the plastic piece can be frozen without damaging the GPS receiver's electronics?
I don't have issues with the indoor side. I have a naked patch on the glass (cut a hole on the tint) to mount dashcams. Now it's removing the adhesive from the mount itself. Solvent-based chemicals have a risk of discolouring or even breaking the plastic piece? Anyway, I'm off to removing the plastic piece as a start, and maybe try heat first.Normally heat helps.
For the glass, some people use WD40, also petrol is a really good solvent for removing the mess, but also a little dangerous, only for use in well ventilated spaces, and its effect on plastic may not be good. Other solvents generally don't work.
Consider using the anti-static sticker next time, solves the problem.
