How to remove stickers from cars?

[jds2006]

My little sister put a cartoon sticker on my car and I'm having trouble getting it off. Do you guys have any suggestions on how to remove it effectively?

Peel the sticker off the best you can and then use tons of Paint Thinner!! Mua hahah!!!

But seriously, peel it off the bet you can and then go to a local auto shop and pick up some Goo Gone. It smells like oranges and works great. :thumbsup:

gas, it won't harm the paint as long as you wipe it all up.

lighter fliud works too

peel off paper, and wipe off the adhesive with rubbing alcohol. My guess.
Or use that orange thingy.. can't remember the name.

razor blade. or if on paint, then peel off what you can, spray the rest with GooGone, let soak for a few minutes and wipe off

If you peel as much off as possible, you can use an adhesive remover (any hardware store should carry them) to get the rest of it off. I dunno what it'll do to a car finish though, so you'll want to test it somewhere first.

Rubbing alchohol is the only 100% safe way to do it.

And Goo Gone will definitely wear away the paint.

goo gone FTW.

Heat with hairdryer (DONT OVERHEAT) and it should come off fairly cleanly

 

[waitman]

WD-40 spray it on and leave it for about 10 minutes and it will come right off.

salad oil works great and doesn't require you to spray chemicals all over your paint.

 

[Apex]

Mayonnaise or peanut butter.

I had the same problem with an election sticker someone put on my car. I used steam and it came right off with no fuss, no mess.

aircraft paint stripper

I've never had a problem just peeling stickers off the car. Nothing else needed.

Wreck the car and get a new one.

goo gone... then clean up the area with polish and wax...

 

[xanis]

Hairdryer to melt some of the glue, then some rubbing alcohol to finish the job.

What happens if you overheat? I've done that once and I'm STILL tryin to figure out how to get that sh!t off my car!

 

[nakedfrog]

I wonder if brake fluid would work. Got any?

 

[Baked]

Clear packing tape works very very well. Quick, clean, and dry.

I like the way you think. Perhaps make the little sister co-sign for it?
