djones39 Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Hi Does anyone have any tips on removing a nismo car sticker from metallic paintwork? The sticker is really cheap looking - so it would be great to get shot of it. Don't even mind paying a firm to do it - as long as they could guarantee not to damage the paintwork. Any suggestion?? cheers DAJ - Merseyside 2004 350z GT (Gunmetal) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarnie Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 You listening SL114? They are only stuck on, hot soapy water and a finger nail under one of the corners should do the trick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zedrush Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Hi mate I used to have a celica with fast and furious type sticker on.. oh those were the days... when I sold it the guy didnt want the stickers so i agreed to take it off, i heated the stickers up with sisters hairdryer then peel them off but left a sticky substance behind. So I got some white spirit and it took the gluey gunk of straight away. That stuff works wonders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That stuff works wonders +1 Hairdryer is always a good method for removing stickers and badges as it heats up the adhesive, just watch it doesn't go to melt point though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_350z Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 If you don't have a hair dryer, you could always get Sarnie to babble at it for a few minutes - plenty of hot air from him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
