What is the perfect method to remove ETC without damaging the car film?
1 Answers
The following are methods to perfectly remove ETC without damaging the car film: 1. Use the hot air from a hair dryer to heat the area where the OBU device is attached to the windshield. The adhesive tape behind the device will soften and lose its stickiness when heated. Then, slowly twist and remove the OBU device by hand or use a plastic scraper to gently pry it off. 2. Soak a towel in hot water and place it on the outside of the windshield to heat the adhesive tape behind the OBU device. Wait for the tape to soften before removing the device. 3. Use sunlight to heat the adhesive tape behind the OBU device. On a hot and sunny day, park the car in an open area to expose the device to direct sunlight until it softens, then remove it. 4. Visit the ETC service center and ask the staff for assistance. They can spray some tar remover and then use a plastic scraper to slowly remove the OBU device. Note that once the OBU device is removed, the anti-tamper button behind it will pop up, causing the ETC device label to become invalid. The car owner will need to go to the service center to reactivate the ETC before it can be used normally again.
