Hair dryer and fingernail

 

+1 Dedon the hair dryer, Fingernail to start Then just peel it off. A little Goo Off from parts store cleans it up nice.

I did get blisters on my fingers so be carefull. Hair dryer does get hot

 

like i said the pinstripes are cracked vertically as there on horizontally thatll be the pain in the *** part any ideas on what would make that somewhat easier?.......j

 

OOOHHH, i can actually help with this one, go to the local sticker shop and they will have this spray on liquid that basically strips that stuff off no problem, my brother makes decals for a living so I guess I can ask him for the name of the stuff, ill get back to you on that though. But yeah, if you want to find out sooner then just run to the local shop and they will help you out.

 

i asked my buddy about some liquid **** like that he said i dk what ur talkin about peelin stripes a pain in the *** i make my **** workers do that i dont have patience enuf so i need to know a name of it plssss......

 

Go down to your local Auto Body Supply store. They will have Stripe and Decal Remover. Use per the instructions and scrape offending stripes and decals with a plastic scraper. Goof Off, Opps or Goo Gone should get off any remaining adhesive.

 

WD-40 seemed to get the old glue off for me fairly easily on the small thing I took off but goo gone or something might work better. I'd use a heat gun or hair dryer to heat the logos up then maybe pull them off or use a heavy fishing line to get behind it. There are a few write ups on this.

 

I had an issue with broken pin strips once as well.there was a black stripe, and a silver stripe, and the silver was broken so many time, I gave up on the goo gone. So, I used a buffer, 5 minutes, and they were off. Made it a lot easier. Just be careful with the buffer. if will take them off easily, so you don't need to sit there with it. Just keep it moving.
