Best way to get sticker off paint?

Question

I just bought a used vehicle ('99 CR-V to be exact), but my question is this.. How do I get a sticker they stuck on the rear of it off without messing up the paint? The car is a dark green color if it helps.

Answer 1

blow dryer it til it peels off

then use goo gone to remove the adhesive

Answer 2

just get some laundry softener

(The blue stuff your wife does the laundry with)

dab a little on it will break it down and not bother the paint.

Answer 3

Blow drying the sticker would make the adhesive expand, making it much easier to peel off~following the same property as Ventureshield. However, I do not recommend Googone on painted surfaces. It is way too strong and have seen permanent etching on the clear coat because of it. Rather I would use P21s Total Auto Wash, let it dwell for a few mintues than clean with wash mitt. Afterward follow through with claying to remove the last bit of adhesive.

Answer 4

they make adhesive remover for car paint make sure you read instructions on all applications ! also a heat gun or good blow dryer should do the trick .

Answer 5

use a hair drier on it to heat the sticker up and it will peel right off,that's the best way to remove those,then use soapy water to remove the rest of the glue film from it,sometimes most of the film will come off with the sticker depending on how long its been on it,good luck.
