Removing Stickers
No matter where you buy your car stickers, make sure they come with directions on how to apply them. Almost all stickers are made to last - they can easily endure the sun and have extremely tough adhesives. If it says to carefully mark your spot before you apply the sticker, it most likely means you only have one chance. If you decide to remove your sticker later, one of these techniques might come in handy.
- The most effective way that professional auto detailers prefer is to use a heat gun or hair dryer. Keep the hair dryer or heat gun a good five inches away and start on one end, heat, peel, and repeat until the sticker is totally removed. Over-heating or too-close heating can cause paint damage.
- Another effective way to remove stickers is to combine one cup of rubbing alcohol with one cup of water. Spray the sticker and let is soak for two minutes. Next, rub the loosened sticker off with your fingers and use a soft cloth and mild soap to get rid of any residue.
- If you do use a scraper, make sure it's not metal. These devices can damage your car. Find a rubber scraper at an auto parts store or have the sticker professionally removed.
