vinyl removal

[Kelly_GT]

Anyone got tips on how to remove the thick chequered flag vinyl from the sides of a Twingo GT?

Don't want to do any damage to my car and want to do it with minimal effort as possible :lol:

You will need:
Extension Lead + Hair Dryer
Spray bottle with Soapy Water

Just apply heat, find an edge and pull gently, spraying with Soapy water to avoid scratches and to help penetrate the glue
"Borrow" some Isopropyl Alcohol from work to take the stickyness off.

EDIT - Or drop it round to mine and I'll do it when I wrap my front Recess.

id have thought pressure washer with hot water??

or maybe a hot air gun but watch ur paint!

Hairdryer or hot air gun as above, apply heat and gently peel. Very little chance of damaging paint just don't put heat directly on paint for long periods.
