Wax and Grease remover works best for removing the glue.

A more fun way of removing decals is with your fingernails. If after repeated attempts, and a few beverages, they don't come off, it is easier to just buy another car. Another tip form beyond common sense.

Napa sells the plastic razor blades and they work great along with a little heat.

I use a heat gun, and I don't pull up on them. They seem more prone to come apart that way. Fold them over and pull straight back on them has worked best for me. Taking several off mine this weekend.

I usually take the glue off with a shop towel damp with Safety Kleen parts washing solvent, and WD40 works pretty well. Not as fast but does work.

^^^This..... much better/faster than WD40. Also works great on removing the rubber from your rear rockers.

Parts washer solvent works well for both also. Just dip a rag in your parts washer if you don't feel like driving to the auto parts store.
