taking of decals??

[SupraFly]

so we have a silver escort with some pink flowery shit on both side doors and i was wondering if anybody here knows a good place to take it off?

[BokCh0y]

how big are the decals? you can try using a blow dryer and slowly peeling that hippie shit off.

Use a blowdryer, heat a corner of the sticker until you can start pulling it off, and then do that with the rest of the sticker. Just keep it nice and hot, and remove the remaining crap off with goo-gone or bug and sap remover, both found at walmart or cdn tire.

Also with the heat gun use a bottlecap to scrap the sticker off.

A plastic bottle cap, removes without scraping.

I know what you where thinking though and that would be stupid!

soft plastic spatula works well too. Don't ask how I know...

a blowdryer works well.

This is exactly how you would do it.
I used to work in a sign shop, and people would pay good
money for us to do this.
Good luck

Sorry to somewhat hijack your thread, but does anyone know how to match the paint afterwards? I removed some decals from my car, and the paint under the decals is noticeably less faded than the outside. Is there any way to artificially fade the paint to match?

^ Polish it?
