Tips on Removing a Blind Spot Mirror Stuck On with Adhesive
Question:
In using dental floss to work off the blind spot mirror, will the floss break off? Is it possible to just pour boiling hot water on the mirror to make it come off?

Dental floss is what CIPA recommends. Fishing line, which is thinner and much stronger should not break, and is a viable option as well. Boiling water is not a good idea either because the heat can damage whatever the mirror is stuck on.
I would use a hair drier to heat up the adhesive while you gently and gradually pull back on the mirror. Using that in combination with floss or fishing line should work great. The hair drier let's you control the heat and where it is pointed which is why it is so effective.
