Remove Ladder

Has anyone removed a ladder? I have a Bajarack ladder that was installed for a few years and I want to remove it. How much of a pain would it be to remove the double sided tape used for mounting? If I were to guess, it’s probably been on for at least 6 years.

You could use a heat gun or a hairdryer to gently warm up the tape, which can make it easier to peel off. Or, try adhesive removers to dissolve the bond without harming the surface.

dilute some IPA with water in a spray bottle. spray one edge/corner. use a heat gun to heat up the tape. patience. get underneath the tape and pull with steady pressure. don't yank. as you pull, use the spray and heat gun and take your time

if you're struggling still then use pure IPA and don't dilute. wax the area when done. IPA loosens the glue and makes it easy to rub off or peel
