Best way to remove stickers from paint?
 

Hey All:

I've got a Mopar Stocker type vehicle I bought and it is unsurprisingly covered in contingency stickers. It appears that they have been on there a while.

I've tried a 3M eraser wheel, plastic blades, and a couple of other methods, but it is incredibly time consuming.

Does anyone have a shortcut?

Thanks,
Steve

Heat gun and wax/grease remover will speed up the process.....

3M adhesive remover

X2.......BUT, it's still tedious work and different decals and their adhesives will react differently. You may have to vary the amount of heat applied with the rate of "peel". A single edge razor blade can help get it started, but they make plastic versions which will you won't have to be as cautious with.

What kind of car? Bracket or staying Stocker?

* Use WD-40 , less wear on the Paint ... Works great ....

^^ I totally agree.
I de-stickered my Stocker with WD-40 three years ago and the paint still looks great.

I also used a hair dryer to soften up the stickers and vinyl decals first. WD-40 to remove the glue.

Yes a hair dryer works good too, just make sure you don't make the decal tooo hot !!!

not only is WD40 great for removing decals ,it takes rubber off quarter panels better than anything else I've tried.

A good way to keep them from sticking too good in the first place, is to stick them on your pants a couple of times. The sticker will pick up some lint from the pants, taking some of the "stick" out of it.
They generally can be removed without hassle.
