Goo-Gone. Try to avoid getting it on the paint.

Try Goo Gone first. One mistake with the razor blade and you'll cause irreversible damage.

is there anything stronger than goo gone?

if not i'll look into that

Assholes, i don't know what these stickers are but they shouldn't be using that type of glue on your car anyway..

Better yet they shouldn't be fucking sticking this stuff on your car in the first place!

There's some sticker remover stuff they sell at autozone I can tell you for a fact the stuff works wonders I have used it on stickers in 4 different cars I've owned now.

Where do you stick them then? Same with parking permits, inspection stickers, etc...

It's a minor inconvenience and not difficult too remove.

Sanitation stickers are put on cars that are parked illegally during street cleaning. It is designed to "fracture" on removal. Therefore it is impossible to take off in one piece (like a conventional laminated sticker).

The whole point in being difficult to remove is to discourage people from parking in street cleaning zones. They can be removed with solvent, but the razor blade method will also be sufficient (may take 20-30 minutes of scraping to get the little bits).

Be glad they didn't stick it to the side of the car. Nothing will get that off except solvent and repaint.

I've never scratched a windshield with a razor blade...been using them for years.

It's glass, not plastic.

anyone have the name of the solution? or how to get it?

Ammonia-free window cleaner and a razor blade.

Auto detailing "solvent" aka Stoddard solvent is just mineral spirits. You should be able to find it at most any hardware store or auto supply shop, maybe even Wal-Mart(?).
