ban99 Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 wd-40. or a heat gun. pull a corner up and hit it with the heat gun and see if that works (carefull not to melt your plastic). If you end up just pulling off the top layer then use the wd-40 to take the glue residue off. Quote
sheefreak Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 Heat gun works well. Just heat em up some and peel, come right off. Quote
evro Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 ditto on the heat. a heat gun, propane torch, even a hair dryer will help. lighter fluid and a rag will also work to wipe off any adhesive residue that may be left behind but dont go out and buy some just for that purpose....only difference between lighter fluid and WD40 for this purpose is that lighter fluid won't leave any film itself because in small amounts, it will evaporate. since i bought my shee i have removed probably around 20 decals. the last owner must have got a shit load of them and anywhere he could see blue plastic, he slapped one on. it looked terrible. i even found them on the inside of the tank shroud plastic after i took it off. WTF... Quote
nayr742003 Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 i used a pressure washer to get my old stickers off the wd to clean up the old glue it worked pretty good for me Quote
banshee#44 Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 if you dont have a heat gun use a hair dryer works great :thumbsup: Quote
2001Stroker Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 Goof-Off makes them nice and soft. Stickers come right off with that stuff too. Quote

BUILDER Posted March 2, 2009 Report Posted March 2, 2009 its an 87 model these stickers are very brittle how do i get them off with out messing up my fenders? Spray a little paint remover on them and they will rub right off glue and all. LOL Just be quick dont let the paint remover sit there. Quote
