Vittoria Tubular glue Removal from ZIPP carbon Wheels

Hi does anyone have any current updated methods/process for removing Vittorria Mastik glue from zipp carbon rim. Please don’t tell me about the recommended Zipp Goof Off glue removal. That stuff just gums everything up and gets all over the place and it takes forever to break down the glue. If someone got a safe method so I don’t destroy a 1 month old zipp carbon rim it would be appreciated.
I want to remove the Vittora glue and add the Tufo extreme tape. I am getting tire of messy gluing process. The Tufo tape works well enough.
I wonder what the Pros Teams use. They got to have some kind of special method. Anyone knows?

Acetone. You can also use a plastic knife or spoon for a little scraping action coupled with the acetone.

Thanks Alienator for the inpu, but sorry my brother but it sounds like you never remove vittoria glue from a carbon wheel.
If you used acetone to successfuly remove vittoria glue then i should ship you my wheels with $200 for your efforts because that suff does absolutely nothing once that glue is harden.

Paint thinners. It is still very messy but if you keep wetting the glue and have plenty of fresh rags it works.

I've never tried the rim tape but if you persevere you will get better at glueing and will be less of a challenge. Make sure you put the new tubular on an old rim for a few hours/days/weeks before you try putting it on so it stretches a little.

The advantage of glueing is that it is easy to put a new single on if you get a puncture during a race, cause it sticks to the residual glue on the rim.

Stick with it. (pun intended)

Yes, I have. You have to get a lot on the glue, and you have to let it soften. It's not an effortless process.

I have used gasoline, paint thinner, and lacquer thinner for many years. Do not use it in a home or near a flame.
