Remove Adhesive from Back Cover
Hello my dear friends
I wonder if there is a solid solution to remove the remaining adhesive after removing the Galaxy S7s Back Cover.
In order to install a new back cover adhesive I have to remove the remaining adhesive left there.
When I pull the adhesive stripes there is a certain danger to accidentally remove the color foil from the back cover. Heat is also not very effective on this.
Is there any adhesive remover?
Also I noticed that on the Galaxy S8 Back Cover e.g. there is on the lower side of the back cover a different type of adhesive which can not be removed with heat.
Would be happy if someone has a solution for this :)
Is this a good question?
I wish I had known about the Adhesive Remover, because I would have received it yesterday when my iOpener, replacement battery, and back cover adhesive arrived. I started tearing apart a brand new S7 tonight, that's been in the box it came in from Verizon since 8/2016. My wife dropped it the day after I got it for her and the lcd was done. Screen went blank and there was a crack from top Rt corner to center of screen, then ended on left side of screen. No insurance. I stored It until today. I made it to the battery and stopped when I realized I couldn't remove the adhesive from the cover. I attempted isopropyl alcohol , but not much luck.
I dont want to damage the color foil on the rear cover. Any idea's to get me by.
I need to have it ready Christmas eve..
