Adhesive from the car's ETC can be removed using an eraser. Here is some information about car ETC: 1. ETC Concept: ETC stands for Electronic Toll Collection, which is an automatic tolling system for highways or bridges. It uses a vehicle-mounted electronic tag installed on the windshield to communicate with microwave antennas at toll station ETC lanes via dedicated short-range communication. This system processes payments through computer networking technology with banks, allowing vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping to pay fees. 2. ETC Applicability: ETC is particularly suitable for use on highways or in busy bridge and tunnel environments. Currently, there are dedicated ETC toll lanes at highway toll stations.

After removing my old ETC, the adhesive residue was really annoying and took me quite a while to deal with. The most common method is to spray alcohol on the leftover glue, wait a few minutes for it to soften, then gently scrape it off with a soft cloth or the edge of a credit card. Avoid using metal tools as they might scratch the glass or paint. After cleaning, wipe the area with soapy water to prevent any alcohol marks. This method works well for regular car owners—I keep a small bottle of alcohol in my car for emergencies, and it didn’t damage my car’s film. Remember to test a small area first to check for reactions. If the glue is too stubborn, just repeat the process a few times—take it slow and steady.

Dealing with ETC adhesive residue by yourself is quite interesting. I usually use a hairdryer to blow hot air on the adhesive for about a minute to soften it, then slowly scrape it off with a plastic scraper or fingernail—be careful not to scratch the car. Next, apply some peanut oil or olive oil to dissolve the glue, wait 10 minutes, and wipe it off. If the oil doesn’t work, you can buy a professional adhesive remover like Goo Gone—just spray it on and rub it away. These tools are inexpensive and often recommended by auto shops, making DIY both cost-effective and hassle-free.

When dealing with adhesives on the car at an older age, it's important to be careful. I opted for household methods, such as applying a bit of vegetable oil from the kitchen, letting it sit for a while, and the adhesive would come off on its own. Alternatively, using a warm, damp towel to soften the adhesive before wiping it away. I avoided chemical products out of concern for skin safety. Simple and safe solutions are the most important, and there were no marks left on the car's glass or plastic parts.

Young people can easily handle such small tasks as glue removal. Just search for a glue remover on Taobao, buy a cheap bottle, spray it on, wait a few minutes for it to dissolve, and then wipe it clean—quick and efficient. Keeping a suction cup handy to help peel off the top layer of glue makes it even more convenient. This method is trendy and highly recommended for keeping up with the fashion.
