    Removing decals from vehicle

    Ok, I have heard the paint-stripper and razor blade method, the hairdryer and strong fingernail method -

    I really don't want to pay $200 for a pro to do it, so how can I do at least a lot of this on my own?

    Thanks!

    where exactly are they located?... window or bumper.....

    the goo gone is quite good.. or you can try the AW-40 too... it takes all the sticky stuff off real nice....

    you can use a spatula...

    Caseysmom,

    Goo Gone is an excellent way to remove bumper stickers.

    Rest In Peace Casey (Bubba Dude) Your paw print will remain on my heart forever. 12/02

    MooShoo,you left me too soon.I wasn't ready.Know that you were my soulmate and have left me broken hearted.I loved you like no other. 1999 - 2010See you again "ONE FINE DAY"
    Maya Linn, my heart is broken. The day your beautiful blue eyes went blind was the worst day of my life.I only wish I could've done something.I'll miss your "premium" purr and our little "conversations". 1997-2013 See you again "ONE FINE DAY"

    Goo Gone is good, but I think WD-40 works even better.
