    removal of old style bullet decals

    Hey guys... got my hands on some new style bullet logos... was wondering if anyone has any tips on removing the old style decals... they seem really hard and stuck on there... I have used lighter fluid, as well as goo-gone to remove the old registration #'s on my boat, and that worked fine, but these decals look like they are much more resilient... any ideas?
    thanks

    Have you tried heat? Leave it out in the direct sun and or use a heat gun.

    Also when you get them removed, clean the area with acetone so the new stickers will adhere good!

    A heat gun and a wooden paint stir stick worked for me. Heat them up, scrape them off and WD-40 the residue.
