    removing stickers

    i am wanting to replace the stickers on my 2000 BassCat Pantera Classic. I am going to put the new domed stickers on it but don't know the best way to remove the old stickers. i tried to just pull them off but that isn't working, any ideas how to make this easier? thanks guys.

    Re: removing stickers (gcopple)

    I've had good luck removing stubborn stickers with a combination of a heat gun, plastic scrapper, and wd40. It still takes some work, but they will come off.

    Auto parts stores have a "rubber" wheel attachment that chucks up in a drill, it is called a "decal eraser", and I think they are a good time saver. And, will not scratch or scrape the finish.

    The eraser he is talking about works like a charm. I used to use it alot in the Body Shop that I worked at. Saves alot of time.

    I use Rainex in a spray bottle, it works great for removing the glue!

    Re: removing stickers (sport188)

    Will any of these work for the glue used for a boat wrap? I've tried many things and still have spots where i cant get it off.

    I know the Rain-X will work, just make sure you get it in a spray bottle, spray it, let it set for a second, then wipe it off!
